Medium rustic red color. Drank 1 glass over 30 minutes. This one of those little wines that the right importer finds and brings into the right little shop with an eye for distinctive quality and value. Another impressive wine that tips the scales the right direction. There is no mistaking this for anything other than Burgundy. There is so much earth on the nose with red berries, dried flowers, almost pungent at times with a mushroom truffle-like note, cedarbox, dried spices, open and giving. The palate comes forth even more showing dark red berries evolving to show some deeper black fruits, a sense of fine minerals, excellent acid, good depth and texture while maintaining balance and poise. A biodymanic wine and one I found quite fascinating. 91+pts.

Biodynamic wine. A very approachable nose of fruits and hint of floral. Notes of raspberries, strawberries and some hints of earthy barnyard notes. Very easy to drink but slightly weak on the finishing. Probably to revisit in two years time to be more interesting.

Drinking well. Pleasant and consistent spine of acidity. Went well with a cous cous + tuna + rocket + pepperoncino salad.

What Mr Holmes said. A pleasant amount of acidity.

Elegant, cool and stony. Lovely fresh berry fruits. Some violet notes to the aroma. Very fine with a puff of chalk to the finish. 50% whole bunch.
