Clos de Tart Grand Cru Pinot Noir
Morey St. Denis, Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
Decided to check in on this. Deep dark purple, opaque. Fruit intensive nose. Notes of peppery kirsch, some wood and herbs, and a little soil. One dimensional and still primary, even on day 2. Rich and powerful in the mouth. A bit hot too. Just short of age 20, I’m not sure where it’s going. Probably could say that about many 03s right now. I wanted to like it more but it didn’t move the needle that much. Gave it a lot of air and it didn’t budge. Might check in again on this in 10 years.

Out of Jereboam. Ripe vintage but a great glass of wine.
