January 16, 2016 - Very reductive on opening, so I decanted 2/3 of the bottle. The reduction didn't really fade over the next 3-4 hours -- I got one sip in four hours that really showed what the wine could be, and that sip was lovely, but the rest of the time it was too reductive to show much.
48 hours later, the reduction is gone from the remaining 1/3 of the bottle but the air has gotten to the wine slightly, it's still drinkable but a little short and twingey.
My third bottle of Metras -- one has been bretty, one yeasty/oxidative, one reductive. I've yet to see the magic and at these prices I'm not sure I'm willing to keep trying when I can drink Foillard at 60% of the price.3,255 views

1/18/16, 10:58 PM - I've opened 3 bottles of 2014 Metras (1 ultime and 2 Fleurie VV) all with heavy reductive elements. I'm with you, not spending this much for these wines in the future
