Mid cherry hue. Nose: raspberry, red cherry and some cranberry. Restrained mushroom note and a whiff of cinnamon too.
Palate: medium- body. Not too intense, mouthfeel is a bit light and lacks some bite for me. Otherwise has nice balance and freshness. Not overly complex but pleasant, a nice quaffer.

Austere, lacking fruit. Better drunk a year or so ago. I see I liked it more 2 years ago.

Similar to the last bottle. Needs food. A good Bourgogne and is more than ready.

Fine, a little thin on the nose with breathing.
Lovely fine Pinot fruit on opening but doesn’t hold up with breathing.
A well made, enjoyable drink but needs to be drunk.

Lovely bright red, strawberry and maybe some white pepper (?), little in the way of secondary notes but vibrant and energetic. A delicious, fun and easy to enjoy burgundy now but May fade. Definitely drink now.
