Bright tart cherry and berry upfront and that highly desirable Pinot earthiness that pairs so well with salmon, pork, cheeses, and charcuterie. I am surprised some folks have rated it so low in comparison to how good it tastes! I would definitely buy this again! — 2 years ago
One of those cases where I can't make a mere sip and fight for the right to finish the bottle. Yet it's sad, cause it's not available anymore in my local store. The first thing to notice is the pale colour of the wine. Apparently, caused by gentle extraction. A beautiful bouquet of fried sunflower seeds, raspberry, strawberry, dark chocolate, spices and gouache. Delicate on the palate, juicy and almost perfectly balanced with good acidity and velvety tannins. It is also flavourful and has a long-lasting aftertaste. To summarize, it is approachable and delicious Pinot Noir, stylistically closer to Bourgogne with a ripe twist. — 2 years ago
This - drink now wine was really not made for aging - !!!! was lost in my cellar. I have no system whatsoever and like surprises. Lots of acidity. Faint kerosine notes like in an aged Riesling. Lemon curd. Meyer lemon. Crushed partially oxidized apple pulp. After 1 hour and reaching RT profound apricot flavors and a touch bitter. A great wine for an at the time a ridiculous low price. I think this is not made any more. — 7 months ago
Black berry dark fruits smell. Pretty dry and fruity taste. I actually like this a lot — 9 months ago
The fruit & sense of place is so strong just from the nose…I could live here. Freshly picked strawberries, cardamon, old barn wood, but all so vibrant that it’s in 3D. Palate picks up the aromatics & redoubles them in intensity, along with black currants. So satisfying & generous, imagine in no small part helped by the six years of age.Lovely integrated mouthfeel too. — 8 months ago
Very distinct smell and a taste that doesn't resemble that smell, but taste very good. I enjoyed this very much, and it surprised me in a positive way — a year ago
Nose starts off a little reduced. But under that is gorgeous clean fruit and minerals. Muller-Thurgau fruit is so hard to describe. Maybe kumquat? I don’t know. Pink grapefruit. Awesome wet stones and so so mineral. Like a 1er Cru white burgundy. Palate is terrific with great acids and freshness and just dazzling purity. Clean as a whistle. Juicy and engaging with a dazzling structure. Terrific sap and energy. Brilliant wine. — 2 years ago
