In Tokyo with a fantastic Japanese meal. Flat, fruit character was missing weak to middling finish. My experience with Jadot has usually been positive, this wine was middling

Bright ruby in color with a subtle red fruit nose. Did not decant. Thin light red fruit -- red cherries, raspberries -- that is initially a bit tart. Over 60 minutes the tartness began to soften, but there is no further fruit layering to add complexity or depth. This wine doesn't have the weight to evolve into a layered wine showing different fruit flavors and multiple textures, but it is pleasant as an easy drinking entry level red burgundy. Probably overpriced for such a simple wine.

60 min decant- very light wine with medium plus finish- can enjoy now or in a couple of years but don't see it improving over long haul.

Better than previous bottle, but still not great. Just not quite enough roundness to make it pleasant.

Disappointing. No earth, no spice, no floral, little fruit, just acidity. In a sense it works well with food, but it's just dilute and uninteresting.
