A very nice Pommard. Enough age to feel the medium to full body. Nice nose of various fruits. Not sure if it will improve from here, but it's in a nice place right now.

2017 New York Wine Experience Trip; 10/16/2017-10/25/2017 (New York City, NY): Although still young, this Pinot now has enough bottle age to shed any youthful awkwardness. Medium ruby, medium-bodied and intensely aromatic, it serves up a bouquet laden with raspberries, orange zest, baking spices and rose petals. Freshly acidic, seamlessly alcoholic (13.5%) and with fine-grained tannins, it delivers flavors mirroring the nose and has good mid-palate density. Finishing with impressive length, this adolescent red Burgundy is coming into its own. While it will likely improve with further cellaring, it is quite enjoyable now. Drink now-2023.

Perhaps too young, we thought from the eye (light red) to the nose (simple aromas of blackberries) to the palate (even simpler dark fruits) to the dainty structure and short finish...it was not special. A wine to reconsider in a few years time...albeit the simplicity on the palate, in particular, is not alluring. We had greater expectations.
