Very pretty nose...dark cherries with hints of mushroom and chocolate. Full bodied and voluptuous on the palate, with dark sour cherry flavors that develop a distinct spiciness on the back end as the acidity and tannins assert themselves. This was really nice. I should drink more Burgundy.

Ruby red to garnet in color, this offers somewhat secondary notes of sour cherry, vegetal, orange peel and spice. Tart and taut on its medium bodied palate with firm, slightly astringent tannins and flavors that echo the nose.

Quite delicious. Lovely tannins, bright, fruit forward, elegant and balanced. Only detractor was a slight green vegetal hint on the back end. A few years in the cellar should work it our though. Great value for money.

Medium body, cherry with a touch of minerality. Short finish. Very pleasant and a great value. Drink over the next couple of years.

Very nicely balanced with a slight tannic end-note.
