  13.0% - Clear, pale & bright ruby / clean, med to light intensity - sour cherry, cranberry, some delicate earthy tones, citrus notes / dry, med+ acidity, med- body, low fine grained tannin, med to low intensity with a good concentration from the ripe vintage, med- length, all in balance. Well done for a Bourgogne Rouge - unpretentious week day wine.

  It’s a vibrant, black cherry color in the glass. It shows a lot of black cherry and ripe plum aromas, but there’s an underlying earthiness that I love. With time in the glass, it opened up aromatically to show rose petal and coffee aromas. On the palate, this wine has grainy tannins. Dark cherry flavors lead into plum and mocha. There’s some oak in this wine, but not too much. It’s fresh all the way through, with a solid dose of acid. The cranberry fruit on the finish is pure and delicious.
  This really is a solid pinot noir, and an amazing value at $15. I really like the 2009 vintage in Burgundy. Joseph Faiveley has done a great job with this wine.
