91 Points | International Wine Cellar , July 2011

Good bright medium red.  Superripe aromas of maraschino cherry and cinnamon lifted by a note of rose petal.  Sweet, lush and fine-grained, with a solid core of sappy cherry and raspberry fruit brightened by energetic minerality.  Displays the flamboyant ripeness of the vintage without going over the top.  Finishes with broad, dusty tannins and lingering spice and red fruit notes.  You can easily spend $30 these days for mere Bourgogne rouge.

Because it is so un-Burgundy like I did not give it a 4, but it is very good for what it is, and the price was right

About the Cote de Beaune

The Cote de Beaune, which comprises the southern half of the Cote d'Or-- the limestone escarpment from which Burgundy's finest wines originate-- is the source of the most famous names in white Burgundy. It also produces outstanding red Burgundies (such as in Santenay and Volnay), even if Pinot Noir here rarely possess quite the stuffing, complexity, and longevity of...

Pinot Noir

Adored by critics, prized by collectors, Pinot Noir is one of most tantalizing yet temperamental varietals in the world. For many wine enthusiasts, this is part of the appeal of Pinot -- it doesn't reveal its charms easily. Pinot Noir's virtue also stems from the unique characteristics of the grape. The skins are especially delicate, which accounts for the lighter color and body of finished wine. But, despite the delicacy, the best wines have excellent backbone and...
