This is a steal of a deal on a terrific Marsannay. Made in rather a modern style, with nice weight and bit of toasty oak vanilla notes, this is charming Pinot Noir. Overall, it is just easy to like and quaffable. And thanks to a recent parting of ways between Kermit Lynch, the importer, and his wholesaler, whom we purchased this from, we have it at a price of more than 1/2 off its original retail. (Keith Wollenberg, K&L Burgundy Buyer) The importer writes: "From a parcel just below Clos du Roy, this might be a touch more elegant. The tannins are more supple, the profile more shapely, long and poised. Bouvier described it as more feminine."
