  Deeply colored; better fresh dark cherry nose and impressive depth than last bottle of this. Bright acidity keeps the characteristic ‘05 over-ripe and chunky qualities in check. After suffering through several entry level ‘05s showing gag-worthy levels of torrefaction and fresh roasted coffee, this was eminently drinkable. 90+

  Deeply purple colored; very rich ripe fruit on nose and palate. Sturdy and quite good for such a modest wine. Nothing especially refined or complex.

  5-31-15 Nice, aged burg. Pale garnet with hints of orange at the edges, a wonderful nose that says 'old burgundy', and a mid-weight mouth feel and palate. Not over the hill, but ready to drink and very food-friendly; if you like Burgundy and are not after a California pinot experience (I will refrain from pejoratives here) you will be pleased with this, esp. if you got it from Garagiste for under $19. Do not be dissuaded by notes to the contrary.

  unfortunately, too thin to offer much--kept this one too long.
