  Medium (-) ruby colour. Medium and developing nose with raspberry, forest floor, violet, lavender and rose petal. Medium taste of raspberry, forest floor, licorice, eucalyptus, chocolate and dried herbs. Long and dry finish. High acidity. Light tannins. Medium body. A very good Bourgogne Rouge from a great pro diver. Drink now or over the next couple of years. Goes well with mushrooms, pork or veal.

  Very clean and pure fruit, mostly red, raspberry and strawberry. Lick of fine tannins. maybe a little light bodied but some sweetness, lots of intensity (again, for a BR). Fair length. And indeed, as last note suggested, no rush. Lovely for its kind.

  Very pleasantly surprised how good this is. It is indeed a BR but one or more steps above in truth. Very clean and pure fruit, mostly red, rasp and strawberry. Lick of fine tannins. Quite light bodied but some sweetness, lots of intensity (again, for a BR). Fair length. And indeed, as last note suggested, no rush.
