Pale ruby in color with medium intensity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Showing raspberries, cherries, red currants, earth, red candy, spices, light oak, licorice and chocolates.
This is a delicious Pinot Noir from Burgundy. Elegant and fruity. Smooth and soft.
Nicely balanced and drinks fairly young, for a 6-year-old Pinot.
Modern in style, and feels like a Russian River Valley Pinot. So interesting.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
Good by itself as a sipping wine.
13.5% alcohol by volume.

Nez muet à l’ouverture mais qui s’ouvre de façon élégante sur de beaux fruits rouges, des épices douces, un petit peu terreux. La bouche suit la même tendance, un peu fermée pour s’ouvrir finalement sur un beau fruit engageant, une acidité bien sentie, presque minérale, des tannins de fort belle texture, il y a une belle vivacité, finale de longueur moyenne mais savoureuse. Un très bon Chassagne rouge très typé je pense du terroir qui aurait pu mériter un peu plus de temps en cave.
Muted nose at first, took time to open up and it did so very nicely on red fruits, soft spices and a touch of an earthy feel. The palate follows the same trend, fairly closed and then started to blossom with that gorgeous and energetic red fruit, nice acidity, almost mineral, with tannins that have a nice texture on the palate, the delicious finish is of medium length. A very nice and typical red Chassagne that could have benefited of a little more time in the cellar. — 4 years ago
Lovely grocery store purchase $10E. Perfect with roasted chicken with lemon, shallots, garlic potatoes and mushrooms that I cooked. Pretty darn reasonable after lunch out yesterday that somehow went off the rails with blue lobster. I’ve never heard of blue lobster. Plan to learn. — 7 months ago
