France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru
Nice nose of candied cherries and perfume. Light bodied, clean and soft, with raspberry notes on the palate. Overall an pleasant wine with an appealing nose, but not much more.

Beautiful rich nose. Lots of cherries, but with some depth and earthiness. In the mouth, light and acidic with raspberry flavors. The nose on this was a real tease, with the palate being a bit of a let down.

The nose on this one struck me as a bit muddy. Some interesting things going on but other than some fruit, no individual notes stood out. It delivered in the mouth though with a rich, structured mouthfeel and a decent finish.
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru
Gorgeous cherry perfume with lots of depth and notes of earth, mushrooms, and vanilla and a touch of barnyard. Rich and complex, full bodied, good structure. This was my favorite of the night! An excellent wine that could be mistaken for a Grand Cru. I'll be getting more of this one!

I was put off of this wine due to the minty aroma of mouthwash. Not my cup of tea. It did blow off after a while but took some time. It was also thin on the palate, short finish, and generally lacking in interest.

Was a bit put off by an odd note of cabbage on the nose, but it did blow off after a short while. Very nice on the palate with rich fruit and good balance.

The aromas on this one struck me as very mild and barely perceptible. However, others at the tasting did not experience this so I'm not sure what's going on with this wine. Medium bodied with good fruit and a decent finish. If it weren't for the weak nose, it would have been a much better wine.

Ripe, lush fruit, earthy with a touch of barnyard. Good tannic grip and rich in the mouth with a long lingering finish. This one's a keeper!
