Terrific aromatic intensity with minerals, meyer lemon, sea air and more. Usually needs to open aromatically. The palate is a wonder. Classic PF finesse and airiness along with massive power and depth. Sapid and long. This needs mega air but the quality is off the charts. Today is all toast and razors. Nose is gorgeous. Salted cream. Unreal minerality. Great acid and length. Killer energy. — a month ago
First time with this since June 2023. Super saline nose, green apple, almost like inner earth minerals from some long abandoned rock quarry. What a palate. Unreal mousse. Super toasty and yeasty and the caressing mousse is just brilliant. So juicy and unreal lime zest, flesh and meyer lemon and faint but ripe green apple. It’s so lush but also a mineral explosion. Unreal. What poise and texture. So sappy and complex. Unreal structure. Juicy and so clean but needs air and air it will get. Wow with air what cut and salinity. The minerality is nuts — a year ago
Deep and feral. Blood and granite all over the nose, along with cracked black peppercorns and dry aged beef. Pretty large-framed for a Saint Joe on the palate. Savory, iron and granite. Still some tannin to shed. I’d thought this would be further along than it is, but it’s got promises to keep and miles to go before it sleeps. — a month ago

A 50/50 blend of Pinot Noir and (Pinot) Meunier; mostly sourced from the 2011 vintage (40%) with the balance from 2010 and 2009.
Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The C. de Pinots NV pours a straw color with a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe apple, toasted brioche, split almonds and lemon bar and spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. The DNA is there and showing a slightly more oxidative style. Drink now. Disgorged July 2016. — 24 days ago
