  Appearance: Clear, mediium intensity, garnet red, narrow watery rim, not much sign of aging.
  Nose: Clean, medium intensity, redcurrants, raspberries, cherries, hints of liquorice and violets, quite gamey, fully developed
  Palate: Off-dry, medium acidity, medium fine-rained tannins, medium alcohol, medium body, medium intensity flavours similar to the nose, nicely balanced, medium finish.
  Conclusions: Good quality red Burgundy, nicely balanced with some development in the bottle. To drink now, not suitable for further ageing

  Clear, mediium intensity, ruby red, narrow watery rim, not much sign of aging. Clean nose, medium intensity, red fruits, hints of liquorice and violets, quite gamey, fully developed. Palate: off-dry, medium acidity, medium, fine grained tannin, medium alcohol, medium body, medium intensity flavours similar to the nose, niceoy balanced, medium finish. Good quality red Burgundy, nicely balanced with some development in the bottle. To drink now, not suitable for further aging - feels like it's reached its limit and is unlikely to improve further, although will probably last another 18 months quite happily.

  Clear, garnet red, narrow watery rim, not much sign of aging. Clean nose, medium intensity, red fruits, hints of liquorice and violets, slight earthiness too. Medium palate, nicely integrated, fruits supported by nice acid backbone, fsurly straightforward. Medium finish. Good value, straightforward Burgundy.

  Thanksgiving from Lee and Allison. Medium bodied, slightly hot, fairly decent bourgogne

  Pas de notes détaillées. Belle couleur passablement soutenue. Tanins plutôt souples. Rétro légèrement herbacée. Nez assez sympa, simple, sur le fruit.
