Needs a bit of air. Mature red fruits, light bodied and delicate, nicely balanced. Quite mature and as this is first bottle of a case I will aim to drink up over next 2-3 years.

I bought a case of this wine in about 2012, and while I’ve tried to like it, I never have. I just drank the last bottle, and didn’t like it any more than I did 8 years ago when I opened the first bottle. I think the grapes weren’t ripe enough when picked. I’m no fan of heavy extraction, but I think this is at the other end of the spectrum. Tart, lacking body, muted nose, and lacking complexity. Not my idea of good burgundy.

Shows age; fragrant, seductive bouquet; velvety, subtle, bright fruit, mid-weight, well-balanced; drinking very well. A smart finish. The grower delivers a wine which lives up to vintage & vineyard. Will age gracefully.

Very light bodied and dry with very pleasant mature fruit -- mostly dark red and plum. Very silky and crisp. A bit of iced tea flavor on the finish. Ready to go upon popping the cork. Less impressive on day #2 as it got "washed out" .

Nicely balanced, elegant, long finish. Moorish.
