Light in colour- pale ruby. Muted nose giving very little to begin with. As often happens with red Burgundy the palate fills out and the wine puts on weight with time in decanter. One of the 1001 wines. With time a lovely red fruited perfume - elegant yet delicious. This wine grew in stature the longer the time in decanter but was only ever light to medium weight. I had a humidity issue in my smallest wine fridge a few years ago hence the crinkled label.

Decanted for 60 min. Great cherry nose, brick red color and extremely delicious, could be kept 10 more years but in a good place right now.

Soft and velvety with lots of rich dark fruits and an aroma if fresh mushrooms. Drinking well right out of the bottle. Hope it goes well with this 7 course tasting menu @noble fare
