Pnp, drank a glass over 1hr. Pale garnet color. Nose not very expressive, but some faint traces of vanilla, rubber, and acetone. Light on the attack, but a big grapefruit, watermelon and cranberry profile clings to the midpalette. Decent length on finish. Acid is somewhat tart but still subtle. Neither especially fruity nor savory, but clean and fresh on the palette. Leaned out as it got more air. This went down just a little too easy. Not serious enough for duty outside the weekday quaffer role, but good wine nonetheless.

This basically sucked. I like wines with red fruits and high-toned aromatics, but this was far too lean. Screech acidity. There were some interesting spice notes in the nose, but nothing that carried through to the body. Overall, glad I only bought the one bottle. 2011 is not a successful year for Bourgogne in either red or white, and less so for minor producers.

This was OK for a $15 burgundy. A little one-note from start to finish (a pleasant red fruit nose and taste). Needs food, even if just some nibbles.

Note from August 2015 has held through to the whole six pack, and these have been a solid QPR from Last Bottle. Sorry to see them gone.
