June 29, 2015 - Rather disappointing. Generic gamay/pinot "vin nature" nose with lots of bright red fruit, a touch of yeast and some green spiciness. Quite nice.
Palate is really lackluster though. Medium+ acidity, dry with no tannins. Light bodied, medium(-) intensity and a medium finish. I got no problem, in fact I mostly enjoy light, slender reds, but this feels mostly watery and diluted.
But I do agree with Boatdrinker, given half an hour in the glass this grows somewhat. Still rather thin and uninspiring.
Mostly Gamay, a little Pinot Noir and apparently a sprinkle of Cot. -

February 19, 2015 - This came out of the gate somewhat thin and uninspiring, but soon after swelled into a wonderfully sleek and grippy wine. Quite Burgundian, to employ the overused descriptor. Great value, but you must be a bit patient.
