Nez delicat et en finesse, note boisée et floral. Un peu de cassonade. En bouche moyennement corsé. C est ample et tout en équilibre. Les tanins sont soyeux. Tres belle longueur.

Nice. Nose had some fruit. I get the reductive things , not harsh or bad though....This also got lost on the bar open during the holidays , drank the last 2 glasses Jan 5th Not too shabby Would not recognize this as a burgundy wine. but it was very very drinkable.

Somewhat masculine but refined. None of the reductive notes I read on the previous review. Darker nose than palate. Pleasant, medium complexity, acid keeps it alive. Tannins lack some elegance on the finish but they are not abrasive. Good effort. Enjoyable bottle.

Tour du Monde (Chevalier Fine Wines - Chicago IL): Very reductive to start, this was partly helped by 30-45 minutes of vigorous swirling in a decanter. Moderate red fruit with lots of earth in background, but this was very difficult to really appreciate tonight.

(Bertagna Vougeot Clos de la Perrière) Much deeper colour - almost saturated, also with a purple rim. The nose is less high toned, more black fruit than red. Fatter and more concentrated with a little more acidity and good tannins though not quite as silky as Les Petits Vougeots. More intense, mineral and complex than the Petits Vougeots - a real keeper.

Nose is excellent with a bit of sour cherry that is quite nice. Medium body for a pinot.
