There are plenty of dry tannins here, dominating light red berry and hedgerow fruits. It is never going to be a big wine, but the tannins should soften in a year to leave a fresh, fruity wine. ——R.V.(7/1/2010)—— 86

A beautifully perfumed wine, not powerful, but delicate and delicious. The fruit, as with all of Gilles Jayer’s wines, is very pure, its raspberry flavors piercing through the tight tannins and prominent acidity. This is a fine expression of elegant, fresh Pinot Noir.——R.V.(12/31/2008)—— 88
