I don’t know what to think of this throughout the experience. It was funky with all kinds of damp wood and forest floor and exotic dark incense type characters very 1er Gevrey. In the mouth it was deep and rich but still with lift and verve fruit intact and a nice finish. By the bottom of the bottle the aromas were so heady, like concentrated brand new leather interior of a car still going down easy with a nice extract and fruit wrapped in complexity. Have never even heard of the producer. Excited to see the other couple bottles! I’m giving it an extra .1 because it’s 22 years old and holding nicely. — 5 years ago

Unexpectedly delicious. Reasonable price ($20) at k and l. Pinot in the way that I like it not too sweet. Lovely acid, a bit of wood and even some leather. A light red with character! — 4 years ago
need at least 6 hours to enjoy this, but once it's done it gives dense, fruity and mineral-touch sweetness. — 6 years ago
Encore une fois quel beau vin expressif, gourmand, du fruit rouge généreux, des épices douces, un bel équilibre, ç a se boit tout seul, très bien. 90-91
Gorgeous and generous red fruit, spices, soft to medium bodied, very expressive and nicely balanced, drinks easy yet gives a lot for the price. — 3 years ago

Hay, cherry, crushed rock, leather, vanilla. Quite a nice typical, barrel aging showing, burgundy nose. The palate is very well balanced : strong acid backbone and delicate cherry notes with some grip on the sides. A silky layer all around that makes it very delicate and approachable, some tannins that kick things up a bit and a finish with cherry and almost raspberry with a pinch of vanilla and some oak. Nice finish that lasts for a while. Very delicate and tangy. Good wine. — 6 years ago

A cheap Premier Cru, and not disgusting. Standard notes of copper, smoke, bacon. Would go well with soy sauce BBQ meats. But not amazing. — 2 years ago
