Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Nice Ruby color with an array of fruit, floral and spice aromas. On the palate cherry, currant and raspberry flavors with some fresh cinnamon spice and tea notes. Vibrant acidity, elegant fine tannins, well balanced just starting to wake up, long finish ending with slight earthy notes, plenty of depth, will continue to develop.

Good value, with a bit of farm, sour cherries, hay. Drunk too young, tannins not there yet

Musky, gamey nose. Earth and forest, pine bark. This wine is taught and brooding, and yet there is sweetness at the core. Black cherries followed by black tea. If the Jean Grivot was a romp through a fairy tale forest, this is a more sinister tale, by the brothers Grimm. One wonders how, exactly, it will end.

Showed a little green from likely the vintage character, but overall an enjoyable, distinctly #Burgundy.
