Jan 14th, 2017Disappointing mid-palate dropoff into a low lying field of no mystery, little elegance, and less precision. Village masquerading as a Grand Cru.

Mar 27th, 2017👁 Lovely deep garnet
👃 Barnyardy (especially when just opened), earthy, some hints of black fruits (but not much)
👅 Austere, intense, serious. Earthy, mushroom, spicy black pepper. Medium plus body. Medium plus acidity. Long finish.
✍️️ It's a privilege to taste such a complex and concentrated wine. Never thought Pinot can look or taste like this.
