  This wine comes from Bouzy. No vintage stated on the bottle or cork.
  
  The light color is hazy and more brown but still visible tawniness.
  
  The nose. This is why I love pinot noir. Clean pronounced and perfumed nose of coffee, licorice, flowers, strawberry, cherry, mushrooms.
  
  The palate is light. Alcohol level is medium, acidity was medium high but is rounded up. Medium(low) level tannins are fine-grained and a bit drying up but velvety. Flavors are forest floor, autumn, cool berries that are a bit dried, mostly strawberry and lingonberry. The body is medium but the length is long. There's the chalkiness dominating. In fact one of the most chalked up wines ever.
  
  This is starting to dry out a bit but offering now an immense pleasure. Outstanding but no doubt just a village or 1er cru level if it came from Bourgogne. Still very well made and aged wine. One to sip and drink while reading good magazine for the darkening Autumn. Even if this is chaptalized which I suspect, this is one of the better reds awhile!
