Nice fruit but lacking a bit of complexity which is main reason I didn't rate higher.

Dark ruby color, looks like a young wine. Touch of greens on the nose at first, then oak, fruits, warm spices, all in control, no aromas overpowering the other. On the palate, loaded of berries flavors, round mouthfeel, a little dry on the finish, but will gain silkiness with air. So flavorful, nice depth, touch of spices. A really beautiful wine. Superb.
Tasted blind, I was thinking of a 2009 Côtes-de-Nuits for its richness of fruit…the pleasure of tasting blind !
Made of Pinot Noir, aged 16 months in oak barrels. Alcohol level of 13.3%

Excellent Pinot noir, full of body and deep rich colour. Darker hue than the traditional Mersault grape, which is grown in the same area. This bottle was enjoyed with duck breast, dauphinois potatoes and spinach.
