Mongeard-Mugneret
Grands-Echezeaux Grand Cru Pinot Noir
Flagey-Echézeaux, Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
A young stellar wine that after a decant only just started to show it's fruit, depth and complexity.

Wow. Wish I could drink this every day. Just perfect balance of tobacco, fruit and leather. Spent 1.5hrs in decanter first.

Oct 20th, 2016Decanted, will follow over the evening.
On open: big wine, tart but ripe, red cherry, intersting mix of orange peel, five spice, and wet fall leaves. Big tannins, astringent, some alcohol on the nose actually...will check in later
Didnt get back to this until 24 hours later...this really opened up the next day unsurprisingly. Alcohol aroma totally vanished, tannins smoothed out completely, excellent. Give it some more time, or a very long decant.
