Top Notes For
Andrew Cullimore

Medium ruby with medium red ruby rim . Quite discreet aroma at first , then red cherry, strawberry , a chalky mineral element , touch of sous bois , and spice. On the palate quite fresh red fruit , strawberry and cherry mostly , quite light bodied with good quite crisp acidity though slightly short on the finish . This is still quite primary , fresh fruit , so good to enjoy now and over the next 5-10 years perhaps . Almost the cheapest of the red burgundies on the (rather expensive !) list here , and a good pick.
