Light to medium body. Overly acidic, imbalanced, tight and closed. Extremely rustic. Has not improved with age over the preceding few years. I will check in again on this in early 2024 but I don’t have high hopes.

1/12. Deep and bright cherry red. Finely powdery mid to dark red fruit on the nose. Densely silky. Cool red fruit. Very attractive. Lots here for a BR. Top ***

A beautiful glowing light garnet and purple hue with a slightly transparent rim. On the nose, cool but ripe red berry fruit, some blue notes, and fresh flower scents. On the palate, this has impressive body and mouth feel for a Bourgogne. A soft, silky texture with slightly chalky but fine tannins that are still quite young, but well integrated and ripe. Ripe but tart red berry fruit with a touch of spice and nice acidity lift on the mid palate. This is great QPR and a terrific introduction to Barthod wines. Highly recommend and drinking in a nice spot now, but on the young side and can certainly wait if desired.

Impressed with the overall package and QPR. This was richer than I expected for a BR. Gave it some air for an hour or two and it drank very well indeed. Strawberry on the nose but cherry in the mouth. Not overly sweet, quite mineral. No rough edges, smooth but enough supporting acid. Very good.

Light body. Very limited fruit and slightly acidic. Been tracking this for years as I bought way too many. Has consistently disappointed!
