Sunday, November 5, 2017 - Annual Bonfire Night Tasting. Very intense nose with feral, earthy and mineral notes. Quite sauvage. I initially though Pommard but Alex correctly said it was more Gevreyesque. Palate is really elegant and nicely developed with intense earthy and mushroom notes. Good concentration and lovely mouthfeel. Balanced fruit, tannin and acidity. This is very classy indeed and the most enjoyable PN I have had outside Burgundy. No new world jamminess here. Thanks to Alex for yet another great find. Apparently this is a lighter vintage, which explains why it is drinking so well now. Joint WOTN.
