Needed about 4 hours of air for the sweet red cherry flavors on the palate to open. Earth, anise and abit of damp underbrush followed on the midpalate with soft, very fine chalky tannins on the midlength finish. This is a very nice village level Burgundy that is drinking very well today

Pretty nose of red cherry and cola with earthy, flinty undertones that carry through into the lighter bodied, fairly delicate flavors. Fairly simple, not much finish to speak of, but a very pleasant village level bottle of wine. Needed about two hours of air.

Tasted both at home and at Berry Bros "The Talented Benjamin Leroux" tasting. On the nose strawberry and red fruits. On the palate sweet red fruits. A light refreshing wine.

Drinking nicely for a very young Burgundy. Floral nose with minerality. Flavors of strawberry with some herbaceousness. Decanted right before drinking.
