Belle petite pinotte apportée de France d`un ami...dommage que notre monopole du bon jus ne tienne pas ce domaine. Pour le prix demandé c`est vrraiment bien. Beau nez franc sur les petits fruit rouges, les épices et les fleurs. En bouche, belle complexité, c`est croquant et juteux, des fraises et du poivre blanc avec une minéralité bien sentie. La finale est longue et suave, du vrai beau jus à prix démocratique...comme quoi on ne peut jurer de rien...ahhh, si jeunesse savait!

Garnet in color with slight amber rim. The legs are light to none. There is no sediment in the bottle. Raspberry, red currant and black pepper nose. Forest floor / Damp Dirt on the Palate, hints of espresso and black pepper. The body is light/medium. The wine has a fairly smooth elegant texture. But the finish is short lived. The wine has some nice tannins and medium acidity so should hold up for a few years. Interested to see how it develops. Pretty good value for the cost. Only complaint is the finish is a bit short and then drops off to nowhere. Maybe that will develop over time. We'll see.

Very nice nose - blackberry and raspberry, underlying incense and espresso notes as it opened up. Medium intensity. On taste good juicy balance for a young 2010. Nice blackberry and raspberry flavors. Long finish still driven by the fruit. Elegant - flavors are more nuanced rather than in your face.

Some nice components but they just don't seem to mesh precisely. Good fruit with an emerging anise flavor. No obtrusive tannins.
