Sunday, May 26, 2019 - Last minute choice with dinner. Opened with no decanting. Cork in excellent condition.
all of the signs of great ripeness associated with this vintage: deep color, palate weight, significantly high alcohol.
This wine clearly falls into the category of new, modern style red Burgundy.: color not typical of Pinot Noir in natural form, lack of apparent acidity, noticeably high alcohol and a texture usually associated with warmer climates.
This is not a style of wine that offers much interest. If anything, it strives to resemble a New World style, lack of elegance and focus without being obviously flawed. Is this a single occurence or is the whole line-up going in this direction.
