My last bottle of this low alcohol (12.7) PN from 2011 has held up beautifully. Ripe cherry, fresh oregano leaves, and slate like minerals in the nose. Lots of gravel and sous bois initially give way to dark cherry fruit with a gunflint minerality. Great balance.

White chocolate, slight truffles, cherry, red licorice, and heat. Earth tones in the mouth, nice acidity, and a slightly sharp finish. Very nice wine, just feel it lacks focus in the mouth and comes across as alcoholic.
