(Faiveley Joseph Bourgogne Rouge) From magnum. Deep red with no fading. The nose has lost some of the oak of its youth leaving mainly red cherry. The tannins are still this wines most obvious attribute, but the fruit gives reasonable balance. Good acidity that helps push the finish a little longer. A nice, quite 'big' wine that is borderline rustic - despite the bottle size still doesn't last very long with 4 friends and a raging barbeque.
