Really enjoyed this. Decanted for ~2hrs. Beautiful perfume, absolutely delicious. Great balance, and a killer price. — 3 years ago
This is surprisingly good! Nose screams Pinot from the Cote de Beaune. Sappy, sultry cherry, spice, moist limestoney loam. Soft textured and focused in the mouth. Good ripeness and zingy acids. Just enough super-soft tannin to provide some structure. Nice length. Terrific value (two words you don’t often hear when a Burgundy is the subject). — 4 years ago
For $18, a great buy. Fresh, young, well balanced. Great acidity. Nothing complex. No overwhelming or particular fruit. But very nice and super easy to drink. Great weekday wine. — 3 years ago

Wow. Such a nice wine coming from humble origins. Needs some air to express itself. On the nose yellow lilies, apple blossom, almost a hint of jasmine, just ripe yellow apple, just ripe pear, a touch of fresh vanilla. On the palate, this really shines. Ripe orchard fruits, rich without being cloying. Blind I would place this as a village Meursault. Yellow apple, pear, touch almond, buttery and rich texture with minimal oak, crème brûlée; I’m assuming from skillful lees management . Good acidity, decent length. 13 abv. 24 usd at the grocery store. I haven’t seen ratings anywhere near where I’ve placed this, but maybe this is a product of a good vintage? Either way, huge fan — 2 months ago

2009 vintage. Completely unfamiliar with this producer (which I love new producers). Opened but not decanted. Age appropriate color. Variety of tea scents in the nose muddled with a modicum of drought dirt/earth. Light body. Tasted 20 minutes and 1.5 hours after opening. Total transference of the nose into the flavor profile-no surprises. Wine seemed to gain more strength/concentration of finish and dirtied up a tad but not more body or complexities. Doubtful another hour open/more air would have unlocked an achievement or improved the standing in the community. Will say it was a pleasure tasting a Vosne-Romanée vineyard with some age on it that was on the lighter side of the ledger vs the usual super intense. 11.28.25. — 22 days ago
