Aug 16th, 2014It’s always fun trying a Coteaux Champenois still red wine from such an a wonderful house as Paul Bara. A clear ruby color with a wide brim and the smallest touch of purple. Blind, it would be easy to confuse with a nice good quality Burgundy.
The nose shows lingonberry, strawberries, and black cherries. Some really nice fresh soil and underbrush. With plenty of air and decanting time delicate perfumed flowers and olive pits.
A Bouzy Pinot Noir with a few years on it is a real treat. Light bodied with round tannins and enough depth. Generous and inviting throughout, this is never really closed off. The palate has a ton of herb goodness and cigar smoke. More red and black berries along with dirty dirt and a dash of vanilla. This is a fun, summery light Pinot. Drink chilled and sit back and enjoy.

Pale color. First time for me to taste PN from Champagne region. Splendid! Complexity in aroma. Skin of tree and animal etc. matured taste at the upper middle of the taste. Not too much picky. 2012 @1530, domaine -, 210624-210715

Elegant. Dark cherry in color. Strawberries, ripe cherries, roses. Hardly showing any age and just a pleasure to drink

Alpine rocks. Finishes a little quick. Complex and super interesting, for sure. A bit thinner than I'd like, but I have a feeling that's just the nature of Champenoise Rouge.
