Slightly hard-edged in classic 08 style with lots of bright acid and noticeable dryness. This is light, fragrant and structured by its acid spine and probably needs some food to show its best.

Very light tawny colour. Tantalising earthy tones, jasmine and bitter orange marmalade on the nose. Yoghurt and redcurrant cereal bar also in the mix. High acid, not a great deal of fruit here but nice polish and unusual flavours make this a good entry level Burgundy.

Very 2008 ... tannic, overly acidic, but good stuffing. Nevertheless, not sure there is enough fruit here to merit waiting for it to mellow out of its youthfulness. A 2009 bojo might be the better option at this 20ish price point.

Fairly dilute and not particularly interesting.

Suitably pale; suave, yet with a characterful earthy element; soft, supple, refreshin, strawberried crunchy fruit; tannic snap to finish. Drink young.
