Nose somewhat muted out of the gates. Floral, roses, ripe red cherry. Palate is awesome. Sweet sweet fruit, loads of texture, some spice and delicious mineral and so elegant. Very very juicy. Ripe and there but not there tannins. Long sneaky finish. This is sweetening up on the palate and has superb tannin/fruit balance as well. Wonderful. Give it 45 minutes for prime time drinking.

Flat out delicious wine bursting with the essence of Pinot fruit. Pure, finessed and striking.

More notes later. But showing so well. Pure fruit. Sweet and layered. Lovely expression of 15. Excellent purity and texture. Superb sweetness. Cooking some wagyu and apt too Smokey for nose.

Nose is elegant and spicy with loads of expressive red cherry fruit. Really well done. Soft, juicy and sweet. So easy to drink. Lovely juiciness and cut.

Nice nose. Juicy and complex, chewy and juicy and balanced. Has huge fruit and the best part of wine is the tannins. Incredibly elegant and fine.

Mais quelle surprise! Producteur inconnu qui fait du très bon vin. Légère effervescence à l’ouverture, ca se dissipe après 10 minutes et on y retrouve une multitude de fruits frais et pur avec une belle profondeur. Bravo ! 91-92

Nose is Amazing. Cherry lipstick. Big fresh cherries. Integrated licorice. Perfume as it aerates.

Palate is awesome. Cherries and spice.

Finish is crazy. Long and super fresh like after eating 10 cherries and the juice rushes down your maw.
