PNP: Medium ruby with bricking rim to the eyes, some very fine deposits. On the nose a great selection of fresh wild red berries (like hawthorn and raspberries) that slightly on the cool side and a little dusty and savoury.
On the palate highly mineral, with slight petillance (unexpected but adds to the freshness) backed up by good, vibrant acidity. Silky tannins and nice finish with a touch of spice.
Would be able to hold for another 2-3 years for sure but not seeing more potential for further development. Drink now.

first bottle with a lovely steak at the cottage, really well integrated and sexy, this wine is wonderful, just coming around and showing the beetroot and cherry flavors, no hurry 5 years left

PNP into Zalto Burgundy glass (“Flower” day): Pale ruby to the eyes.
Consistent notes as previously tasted. Still some oak here but overall very balanced.
92-93 points.

Delish with a decent chicken with pan sauce. Mature, but will hold for a bit.
