Solid, pleasurable, mellowed and balanced. Still in great condition, fruit and tannins have mellowed. Served with Christmas dinner (turkey) and very well received. Wish I had a few more.

This opened up beautifully in the glass. Sweet black cherry, marzipan, herbaceous elements, coffee, meaty and savoury. More complex than I'd anticipated and really delicious. Decent value for Burgundy.

A touch of bottle variation here, this wine being much rounder and fuller than the previous one last week. A touch of plums, celery salt, tangy red fruit. Decent enough for £20 although I'd be inclined to find value elsewhere. I like Burgundy, but it struggles at this price and this lacks a sense of place.
