Tobacco, leather, a bit earthy but still fruit on nose. A little tough on the back-end. A bit too much tannin? Not super well integrated?

From 2 1er Cru parcels, the nose displays ripe red cherry, raspberry, steeped black tea, autumn leaf, hint of rose petals, and light barnyard. Some warm spices and subtle strawberry sweetness to complement the crunchy red fruits on the palate. Fresh acidity and medium tannins.
Good depth and decent complexity for this well priced PN.

An outrageously delicious wine at an affordable price.

That one is a regular shape shifter, starts with bright acidity and end with cherry jam. Lovely Pinot Noir!

Great pinot. Nice tart cherry rose, the earthy aromas were well balanced. But not everwhelming, making it very approachable.

Light Pinot Noir. Shared with Liz Abel based on Charlie's recommendation. Fruit forward and tart with a dry finish.

2010 vintage from half bottle. More fruit than the 2008, but that same distinctive Mercury salinity / almost metallic note.

Would have been better a year or two earlier. Still, an outrageous nose, and cherry palate with stony minerality.
