Cherry moss, ripe red and black fruit. Some spice. Simple and straight up.

Tart cherry, pomegranate, red licorice/hard candy quality. Very little complexity.

Exceeded my low expectations! What this wine lacks in complexity, it makes up for in value. Dried cherry, cranberry sauce and a bit of earthy mushroom. Texturally pleasing with nice acidity. Paired well with a petite filet mignon. @17.00 bucks a bottle, I owe it to myself to highlight the positive aspects of this wine. I'm glad there's a place in the market for a simple, but well made, inexpensive Burgundy!

Surprisingly bright, lively, and light. Ripe cherry, pleasing acid, and decent length. A great value for well made Burgundy.

Entry level Bourgogne for a fair price. Enjoyable but rather fruity and simple.

2022 vintage. Unexpected focus and concentration throughout the experience. Medium body. Retail should run around $25. 5.15.24.

Translucent ruby-garnet.
Wound up, reductive. Suspected of Brettanomyces contamination; medicinal and wet band-aid aromas, when first opened.
3 days later, Brett characters gone. Bright fruit with some reductive character. Suspect it was just hyper refuctivr when .1st opened.
Good acid backbone. Tannins 50% refined. Would benefit from 5 years bottle age.

Il faut laisser vieillir cette cote châlonnaise (9 ans c’est parfait).
