Was a little disappointed in this. May have been flawed but not sure. Seemed flat, a little gamy and musty. Drinkable, maybe disappointed because have really enjoyed other wines from this producer so much.

A strikingly savory, mineral wine. Strawberrylike fruit, mineral, dried herb aromatics and a savory, brothy palate with firm acidity, ashy minerality and just modest fruit per the vintage. Slight astringence to the moderately clenched tannins, and a lingering ganja note. Soulful stuff.

Pretty great considering this is a cheap village wine. Nose is fruit forward with cherry and strawberry notes. Palate is very acidic and young with great ripe fruit. Little earth, mostly fruit on this one.

(Catherine et Claude Maréchal Bourgogne Côte d'Or Cuvée Gravel) Nice cherry and mint nose with green notes; tasty, tart red fruit with green notes; medium finish 87+ pts.

Lots of cherries, with some red fruits. Filled out a bit on the second day, but still left you wanting more.
