Côte de Nuits Villages Pinot Noir
Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, FranceExcellent balance and Pinot fruit expressions. Above average oak profile. Appropriate acids and tannin. Just a bit of funk when uncorked that withered away within 20 minutes. 2011 vintage.

What an earth-driven wine! Yes...there's some red berries and plum there...but the wild, even feral pungent herbs and notes of savory cocoa dominate. Paired with Thai basil chicken it actually became juicy with wonderful spicy heat. Let's see what it does with age.
