Pretty big for a Volnay but rich and delicious. Very open and accessible after about 90 minute decant. Certainly will hold for years but quite good now.

Served with the Vinloq System

DAY 1
👃Ripe red fruit with dark fruit, cooking spices, purple florals, soil, & herbs
👅 Multiple hours in the glass yielded crunchy red and dark fruit. Smoky & earthy. Finishes dry with mild tannins. Classy, elegant drink

The remaining wine was "Slow Decanted" in my refrigerator

DAY 10
👃Cherry, raspberry, strawberry. Lightly spiced and dusty smoke.
👅The earthy elements come through on the palate. Silky. Tannins well resolved. Finishes with spicy, dark fruit with nice length

Breezed through 10 days with Vinloq👌
In an excellent place now 🍷🍷

豊かな果実味をベースに、ほのかなタンニン、コク、酸味が大きなスケールで現れる。黒ベリーの香り。

Pop and pour. A medium ruby red color. On the nose: floral, forest floor, cherry, herbs, and caramel vanilla. Taste: white pepper, strawberry/raspberry, with a smokey floral medium plus finish framed by medium acidity. Tannins starting to resolve...give this medium body wine a few more years.

This pinot going great with the Imperial Peking Duck tasting menu at this once Michelin starred restaurant (1st Chinese restaurant in north America to earn one).

VIVA LAS VEGAS!!!!!!!!!!!
