  Lovely aromas but not very lively

  At Sussurus, Malta. €85 off the list. Raspberry fruit with soil on the nose, medium bodied, quite light with fine but firm tannins but just enough weight and body to carry them, raspberry fruit, soil, a touch of iron - quite old fashioned in that sense, fresh acids, decent length finish. Decent, characterful village burgundy. Enjoyed this, drinking well but no hurry.

  Lunch at Min Jiang, London (Royal Park Hotel, Kesington, London): We had three bottles of the same wine, and this surprised on the upside - a really pleasant drink that went very well with a Peking duck dish. All three bottles were very consistent, starting out with a lovely, lifted nose of cherries and red berries lined with a little touch of spice and some of the stony minerality you would expect from an NSG. The palate was very 2014 - bright, juicy, a touch of the lighter side, with with lovely clear notes of red cherries and berries, all lined again with a nice streak of spice and mineral. Really pleasant, and drinking really easily and cleanly for a Faiveley. Just what you would want from a negociant wine at this level. There is enough structure for it to age nicely in the medium term, but I am not sure that this has a weight and depth for the very long haul. Given how pleasant it is in its youth though, I am not sure why anyone would keep this away for that long.

  This exceeded expectations. Bright, deft, sharply but not harshly fruited, plenty of freshness without being at all mean. Very food-friendly and drinkable, at the beginning of its drinking window.

  Very acidic, fruity nose. Paired amazing with lamb.
