  August 8, 2010 - Yes, red Burgundy has to be expensive. That's what most people think, so don't tell them about wines like this...
  
  The nose is the star of this wine - seductive, light red fruit with spice and sandalwood notes, the nose punches above its class. The palate is nice, but is a bit dilute - the fruit matchs the nose in weight which means it's a bit slight. Fine with food, this is weighted a bit to the acidic side for a cocktail wine for most people. Nice with steelhead, I bet this would rock with a roast chicken given, cutting nicely through the fat there. This does put on weight with air, so I'd pop it and grab a glass as you cook dinner - it's not heavy after 30 mins, but the gain in weight is definitely there.
  
  Well worth the $20, I'd drink this now for a year or two.
