Corinna Horton rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Lip smakingly dry with a slightly astringent bite that makes for such a great food wine, a wine that makes you salivate is a wine to enjoy with dinner. Medium bodied, with that signature cherry back and hint of barn; a true taste of Burgundy without breaking the bank. Solid entry level Burgundy wine from a winemaker with a linage of style and tradition. This is a wine that will make you thirsty for more. Hold on to your wallet.

Pair with a simple butter herb roasted chicken, a tangy frieze salad (with a poached egg and lardons!) or a ripe, semi-firm sheep's milk cheese.
Patrick Ayotte rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Clear cherry red color. Expressive nose of red berries, earth and spices. On the palate, flavor of freshly picked strawberries pops in then a light spicy side adds depth to the wine. With air, flavors of cherries and dust will also be feeled. Savoury and fresh wine. Alcohol level of 12,5%
Jane LeFresne reviewed this wine as follows:

Why I Tried this Wine: Another wine from my current sommelier course list. Interesting fact, this winery was opened in 1750 during the reign of King Louis XV, that’s a pretty long history.

Tasting Notes: cherry colour

Aromas of raspberry, cherry, spices with hints of smoke, earth and vanilla.

Flavours of sour cherry, raspberry and coffee.

This wine has a grippy mouthfeel with a long tannic finish.

Food Pairing: lamb, pork and duck.

Would I buy this Wine Again: This wouldn’t be the first Pinot Noir I grab off the shelf but if you like big bold wines that have high acidity and tannins, this wine is for you.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
