Excellent fruit. Nice spice and the acidity is in check. A great purity of fruit is the star of the show!

A pinot noir with structure and depth. Nice spice and hint of tobacco. Dark fruits on the palate, medium to high acidity and slightly bitter undertone. Mineral and clean finish. For a price under 40, this 1er is of great value

Excellent example of a good Burgundy for the price. Lots of cherry and organics in the nose and the pallet. Buy it if you can find this one. 2012 Vintage.
