A nice value in red Burgundy (Pinot Noir) wine from a top negociant. Ruby in color, magenta swirls, clear and bright. The nose has cherries, some sandalwood and a bit of nutmeg. Medium bodied. On the palate, nice, easy drinking, cherry flavors. Short finish. This drinks well on its own and will work nicely with salmon or lighter foods. Drink over the next couple of years.

Great on its own, this would work well with salmon or a mushroom dish.
