1990 | Pinot Noir
Manière-Noirot; Les Boudots 1er Cru
Burgundy; Côte de Nuits, Nuits-Saint-Georges, France
(92-94; Drink 2023-2030+)
Decanted 2H at time of notes, likely 4-6H appreciated.
Ripe red raspberry, wet carbon steel, damp chalk, chilled black cherry, charred grape vines; Dried cherry, dried blackberry, dried garden soil, medium tannins, impressive level of acidity. A standard showing for aged 1990 Burgundy, strong with many years ahead. Will 1990 or 1999 live longer? Time will tell...
Paired to Filipino Chicken Adobo in Coconut Broth, wonderful!
