2012 vintage. Really great nose. Light in body but with great hints of black pepper and dark cherry.

2012 vintage. Well, if all non-pricey Burgundies would carry the same precision as this one, then we'd all be winners. Light, fragrant, fresh and made to be enjoyed now, but there's enough stuffing here to merit a few years of cellaring as well
