  September 3, 2020 - Belle robe d'un pourpre assez foncé pour du Pinot Noir.
  
  Fruits bleus bien ensoleillés au premier contact...presque comme une sauce de bleuets et de mûres.
  Une belle richesse, c'est doux, bien sucré et charmeur en entrée de jeu.
  Violette et tige de fleur en arrière-plan, octroyant un peu de tonus pour une bouteille dangereusement souple.
  C'est savoureux et velouté... je me croyais ailleurs qu'en France.
  
  Cependant, a commencé à montrer des signes de faiblesse et une minceur aromatique au fil des heures... a perdu de son maquillage.
  Toutefois, franchement bien construit pour un simple "Vin de France". On sent le tact de la maison Doudet-Naudin même pour une bouteille bon marché.
  
  À boire jeune, sans se poser de questions!

  Beautiful deep purple coloration on this Pinot Noir.
  
  Ripe blue fruits at first... almost like a blueberry and boysenberry sauce.
  Nice lusciousness, soft, a touch of sweetness and charming right out of the bottle.
  Violet and flower stem in the background help in giving the wine some crucial tonicity.
  Quite tasty and velvety... didn't think this was from France.
  
  However, showed some general weakness and aromatic thinness as more time passed... lost some of its makeup.
  Still, frankly quite well-built for a simple "Vin de France". Doudet-Naudin's tact is undeniable even in this budget offering.
  
  Drink and enjoy while youthful, a no-brainer!
