Clean medium ruby; clean medium plus nose of blackberry jam, cassis, wood and soil; dry; high acidity; medium tannins; high alcohol; medium plus body; medium plus flavour intensity; palate has fruit payoff with addition of cocoa and black licorice; long finish; drink now or in 5 years; one of the best Chateauneuf-du-Papes masquerading as a Pinot that we’ve had; initially shy but stunning after a 1 hour decant

Opened and slow ox'd for about two and a half hours then slowly drank over the next three. Red fruit on the nose. The palate was cherry, plum and hints of strawberry and spice. The finish was on the long side. A most enjoyable pinot noir
Wonderful aromas of red cherries and blueberries. On the palate, sweet flavors of strawberries and currant with some spice and firm tannins. Excellent wine and ready to drink now or over the next few years.

Simple wine with no acidity. Comes off as sweet.
