Lightish pinot hue. The nose is really pretty and complex, and the palate is quite light and tart - very acidic and with some drying tannins in the finish. Without food it's a just bit bordering on masochistic even for a fan of acidic wines such as me. Would really need a little bit more fruit and roundness, or then some fatty food.

Very enjoyable Bourgogne. Decanted and aired for five hours. Complex nose for a Bourgogne, with a lush feel in the mouth. Well made, very enjoyable wine of this category.

(Gambal Alex Bourgogne Pinot Noir Les Deux Papis) A wide and forward pure pinot nose. Good texture and excellent acidity - real extra flavour dimension in the mid-palate that lasts well into the finish. A first class regional.

Nose of sour cherry with some forest floor and charcoal undertones, a hint of new world to the light-bodied palate of cherry and cranberry.

Tasty and Simple. Light fruit notes and long lasting acidity with a decent finish. Would drink again for the price

Soil and black cherry on the nose. The palate is subtle with some faint spice. Nice early drinking wine.
