Holding up well for a 7 year old generic wine. Limpid,colour fading to orange at the rim,nose evolved , clean ,redolent of those briary red berries.On the palate quite lively, earthy ,raspberry ,red currant,with a fair lick of tannin and cut of acidity which truncates the finish. Not substantial, but as a pointer to Grivots quality wines it bodes well perhaps ?.

Developed nose with sweet strawberries, leather, spices and smokey minerals. On the palate soft and fresh, nicely developed, with sweet red berries, leather and wool. Well-balanced oak that adds no bitterness, only depth. Easy-drinking but not without complexity. Drink now.

Very good.
Surprisingly rich and luxurious. Good savoury pinot notes, nice length and balance.

initial impressions:
J- this is not very good
O- I know. maybe it needs some air.
it got a little better but not much
well, it turns out that not all red burgundy is good. decent balance but no real compelling flavors here.

Tart cranberry nose. Unripe red berries and red plums on the palate. Lean and acidic. Little midpalate concentration. A thin 2008.
