Pretty solid from 2013. Oak dominates off the bat (toast, grilled almond) but quickly evolves into pretty red fruit. Mouth well structured but fairly lean. Great acid no doubt. Will keep 3-5 yrs +.

Ripe dark cherry juice, raspberry cola, very ripe strawberries, cranberry juice, bigger oak presence for a typical red burgundy, cinnamon & vanilla, dark dry earth, crushed rocks and gritty chalk. Good balance and acidity. Overdelivers for typical village level quality.

Гранат. Интенсивность средняя-, спелые ягоды. Вкус-ягоды, мягкий танин, но его много, кислотность средняя+, морс, лёгкое, не слишком ароматный, что странно для вольнэ.

Клубника, специи, намёк на грибы. Во вкусе лесные ягоды. В меру кислотное, но довольно суховатый танин.

Great balance, really well crafted wine, but expected a bit more from PN from this price segment.
