Awesome nose. Toasty, brioche, spices. So deep. So clean. Smells like a stream. Some peach skin. So much complexity and breadth. Mindblowing nose. So juicy and filled with citrus fruits and lovely breadiness. So pure and tangy. Sappy as all can be on the finish. And that finish. Whoahhhh boy. It is long.

Nose has oxidized yellow apple, orange pith & zest, fresh brioche and warm limestone slab.

Palate has lively salinity, lemon zest, red apple flesh, dried strawberry and oxidized green apple. BEAUTIFUL oak integration, really mellows the acidity in the wine, perfect balance, intense finish, very long.

This is the debut of the new, frosted bottle for Pur Meunier.

Bottled 31 March 2015 | Bottle No. 200/1220
100% Pinot Meunier | 100% Damery fruit | 100% Oak-aged (Damery sourced oak)

(I believe this version to be mostly 2014 vintage harvest.)
