Nice minerality, but it also has some strange tropical and synthetic notes. Bitter in the middle, and almost sweet-and-sour finish. Better on day 1 than on day 3. I found the Cote de Brouilly far better.

So floral, delicate, with dried flowers and the ripest, purest field fruits. Velvety texture, with just enough tannin to give the wine some superb length. Run! There are not many left. Drink now-2014. Food pairing: Apéritif, white meats, especially fowl.

Not a fan of this one honestly. Tasted more like grocery store German Pinot from a rather good producer, say Siegrist or Muenzberg. Thin, even acrid red berry fruit--piercing cranberry and pom, leading to a rather abrupt finish. Did not have nearly the depth, concentration and pull of the '07 Moulin a Vent from Chermette, and I simply can't imagine ever paying about 10 Euro for something like this, not with more balanced and seductively fruited Pinot available down the street for 8 or 9. Pass. But again, loved the Chermette...looking forward to LaPierre's Morgon.

Nice silky texture, but virtually nothing in the way of taste.
