Domaine Olivier Guyot Fixin 2000 (France)

Price - $25.99 Size - 750 mL- Wines of the World Wine Tasting held on Saturday May 28, 2005 at the Powers Liquor Mart in Colorado Springs with Will Gillum.

This pinot noir from Burgundy is unfiltered, so expect a little sediment in the bottle and your glass if you don't decant it. This is a darker red with some sediment and medium-quick legs. Hints of earth and black cherry mix on the nose. Flavors of earth, spice, tart cherries and mushrooms mix together to form a wonderful smooth, silky wine. This wine is not overpowering but has a long dry finish. Grade: B+
