Community Tasting Note

alanh13 Likes this wine:

Friday, August 2, 2013 - Popped and poured and drank over 45 mins with chicken with tomato & herb and later cheese (brie and cheddar). Went well with both. Cherry, floral. Not given enough air for earthy flavours to develop as before. Good value in a Burgundy context.
Following day (inert gas, fridge): this has lost its fruit and delicacy and is almost cooked or oxidised - hasn't kept well. The acidity also seems quite low. However this could be because I am drinking it following a very high-acidity and fresh 2010 white Burgundy - which is probably making this one-day old pinot noir taste much less fresh than expected. A little later with air and at a higher temperature (18C) there are some remnants of pinot noir. However this doesn't seem to keep well after opening. An excuse to drink the whole bottle next time!
