...offers a gorgeously bright medium-to-dark ruby color and extraordinary fragrances of super-ripe plums, cherries, and morel mushrooms... ...brooding, powerful, full-bodied, mouth-coating, and refined block-buster... ...Wow! Bravo!
Thick and sweet on entry, but with buns of steel. Here the acids hit the palate earlier than in the Echezeaux, leaving the wine rather tough in the middle palate. Great precision and complexity, not to mention power and vibrancy.
Big, massive and racy, this full-bodied Pinot is loaded with pure, clean and sharp cassis, blackberry and raspberry character that marries nicely with subtly toasted and spicy oak accents.
