very reductive at first and took 2 or more hours to settle down. Seemed like a very modern style and seemed over extracted, very dark colors and somewhat tannic. If balanced with fruits and minerals , would gave a good showing..............

This very much confirmed the view I keep hearing about Le Moine: Burgundy's finest producer of California Style Pinot Noir.
The wine was surprisingly ripe given the vintage. Cola, cherries, some vanilla. What guigal would produce in Burgundy? Very pleasant drink that is very gulpable but ultimately fails to convey a sense of place or the vintage.

I love this wine, clean and very Beaune impact, fresh, very well-balance, medium-bodied and very beautiful in its finished. More than I expected and need to buy more bottles. After 2011, the wine will close for a few years.
