Nice, more structured and more intense than Côte de Beaune but still very approachable. Candied plums, fairly sharp but focused

Feb 23rd, 20192014 opened June 2018. Pepper and mown hay on the nose. Unripe blackberries on the front. Weak tannic structure down to an astringent mineral ending. This wine doesn't stand well by itself, but it was a perfect pairing with a Jidu1ri chicken dish I was served at Joel Robuchon.

Found in wine store in Memphis. Paid $35-%10. Good typical burgundy. Slightly thin to medium body with great finish. Very smooth. Well balanced with mild acidity. My type of burgundy for this price range.
