As per previous notes. Was an interesting Bourgogne Rouge but a very substandard Vougeot (even for a bad year). Now showing a unripe green element in the finish - fading fast. For the pot!

Decanted for two hours. Perfectly sound smokey cherry aroma followed though on the palate with pinot sour fruit typicality and hint of tar. Medium body and length. Well enough made negotiant Burgundy given a poor year, but certainly nowhere near Grand Cru quality and definitely not worth the money paid by a long way - penalty point! Should have been declassified. Drink up over next year.

My last of this severely overpriced and underperforming offering - win some lose some!
Pleasant enough Bourgogne Rouge but.......

See recent notes. Sub-standard for its appellation.

Pleasant enough - but not at the price; previous note applies.
Drink up before it goes flabby.
