Fantastic burgundy. Just the right amount of richness, great complexity and a wonderful finish. Terrific.

Initially weak spritzy wine. No back bone or depth. After one day in fridge. Cedar cherries on nose. Deeper ruby fruit sweet palate finish. Decent minerality lacks power and a little sloppy slutty with fruit. Cherry cough syrup.

A super solid Morey AC that drinks more like a Chambolle.

Way too young but it will develop into something quite remarkable! Bit darker than your average red Burgundy, wild strawberries, cherry, black raspberries, black tea, liquorice and spices. Highly concentrated and delicious.

A bit on the austere side of things but a strong core of sour cherries and minerality.

Very nice. Good choice uncle Ugo! A little berry up front, really good depth and some spice on the finish. Went great with dinner after having fun in a plaza in Dijon watching France win the World Cup. Very exciting time to be here!!
