  January 16, 2017 - Still very fresh. The nose has some meat and cherry. The palate is all cherry and meat. It is working along a relatively narrow range but is very Barthod with its undercurrent of cool and rocky things.

  February 4, 2009 - Pale/medium garnet, wide pale garnet rim. Nose initially closed, but slowly opening to reveal understated but pure, slightly creamy red cherry fruit, and some notes of earth and iron. Medium bodied in the mouth with moderately intense red cherry fruit and the same hints of earth and slightly bitter iron notes. Not unexpectedly a little lean and ungenerous on the mid-palate in the way Bourgogne often is (and arguably should be) before attractive fresh acidity carries a medium/good length slightly firm finish. Very good, enjoyable Bourgogne.

  December 21, 2008 - 12/20/08: Medium-light red colour. Has a lot of red fruit on the nose, with some hints of cedar, wet earth and spice. Flavors are not very pronounced but are fairly pleasant red fruit, earth, spice, and hay. Good but not very complex texture, with soft sikly tannin, but a little too much sour acid so the overall balance is not there. The finishis short, soft tannins and sour acid.

  October 28, 2008 - Much more interesting than the previous bottle, or is it just my attentiveness? Sappy sweet red fruit, piney resin, some sweet earth, spice. Sweet fruit on the palate with lifting acidity. Moderate finish. Great bottle of Bourgogne, infinitely drinkable and enjoyable which is the true measure. All things considered, the pleasure to price ratio is excellent!

  August 7, 2008 - everyday drinking Burgundy w/ a light finish and a bit on the acidic side. red fruit is fine and little oak is present. Structure is lacking. Not bad for the vintage and price.
