brickish on edge, sulfur at first that blew off fast. 2013, very youthful. but if spritz on finish. could use more time. quite opulent

Really expressive, amazing example of Corton, a little dirty in a good way, great complexity/balance/purity, if only more producers could be as pure in the expression of PN.

What a hill! This is remarkable and inspiring. Even in its adolescence this is a precocious marvel.

Red plum, black cherry, framboise, over ripe, but not jammy. Integrated 1/3 new oak notes (vanilla bean, cinnamon, touch of Clive) Lovely mature earth notes; truffle, white button mushroom, touch of cedar and mature tobacco. Almost completely missing structure and borderline flabby. Drink up if you have this.

Savory and earthy. Tannins are resolved. Spicy and smooth mid palate. Best showing of this wine that I’ve had
