Really beautiful bottle of Burgundy - at the early stage of true maturity but seems to have the stuffing and density to hold on for awhile. Ready to go pretty much from the pop of the cork, too. A healthy, fresh ruby in color, yet the fruit is in a mostly tertiary stage with savory, earthy aromatics while still having plenty of body and sweet flesh and with that sticky, sappy grip that only age brings once the structure has simmered down. I bought this very recently for $20 a bottle. If you factor in storage costs of $1 per year, that means the wine was FREE! Don't give up on your off-the-beaten-path Burgundies, people! They can age superbly, too.

Way better than the bottle 2 years ago. Lovely red fruits, an herbal note. Some minerality.

Terrific nose. Floral. Excellent mouthfeel. Fruit is restrained. Mid-palate is tad thin. Finishes with a slight herbal note.

Pleasant and fruity with light cherry pit and a bit of wet stone. More like a Morgon or Beaujolais than a true Burgundy.
