Great deep sweet cherry fruit. Still dusty tannins, and clearly too young still. A bit rustic but very nice. I wish I had more to hold on to for another few years

Started lean but filled out after 90 minute decant. Fruit developed, and was fine with food. I liked it, and would give it another couple years. Lighter leaner style of Pinot Noir, but great with food.

Nothing special, decent wine. Expected more for the $45USD price point (much cheaper in europe). It does have an impressive and fragrant nose. The flavors carry through initially but then taper off quickly and nothing of note. Not memorable. I wouldn't go looking for this wine. Flavors are polished and fruit is fine, get a bit too much heat and imbalance from the wine.

Unique wine -- a rarity -- interesting nose of round malt chocolate and deep fruit. Sinewy palate, balanced, good food wine.

Irancy Calling: Celebrating Saint Vincent; 1/30/2015-2/2/2015 (Chablis - Irancy - Beaune): More at the Mazelots side but lacking real personality.
Pairing some st.Jaques escallops.
Más del lado Mazelots pero careciendo de personalidad.
Para tomar unos escalopes de vieras.
