  This took an hour of slow-ox to show close to best. All in all, well balanced with mineral, lovely mix of dark & red fruit, spice and underbrush. Little bit of sandy tannins after dinner standalone but pretty nice. 2015 continues to be pleasant accessible vintage. Seems to have the fruit and depth of '02 but more energy. Alc 12.5%

  Nez très expressif sur les fruits noirs (mure) et rouges (groseilles), le terre retournée et un soupçon de végétal. J'aime beaucoup !
  Bouche concentrée avec une matière soyeuse. C'est impressionnant de densité à ce niveau et l'équilibre est parfait le vin n'étant à aucun moment pesant.
  Finale d'une bonne persistance, bien expressive sur l'aromatique perçue au nez
  
  Clairement un pinot "terrien" plutôt qu'aérien, tout simplement superbe pour un "simple" village.

  PnP 90 before dinner. Semi translucent ruby red color. A little forest floor, earth and spice on the nose. Balanced, elegant and perfectly ripe. Lots of stony Beaune minerality, rainier cherry, earth, spice and light underbrush. Exceedingly fresh and weightless from one my favorite producers these days that, I can still afford. 12.5% Excellent PN from anywhere at $35.

  PnP 20 minutes before dinner. A very representative '15 red Burg. Balanced, elegant and soundly ripe. Everything in its place. Lots of stony Beaune minerality, rainier cherry, spice and character. Exceedingly fresh and weightless from one my favorite producers these days that, I can still afford. 12.5% Excellent PN from anywhere at $35.
