Private Dinner 'At Home'. This wine is new to me and was a delightful surprise, 100% Pinot Noir and no dosage. It was disgorged in October 2019 being predominantly from the 2017 Vintage. The nose was all red apples, redcurrants, wild strawberries and brioche leading into a very structured Volnay like palate that filled the mouth and persisted beautifully. A very individual and flavoursome wine that extended beautifully in the glass.

Notably more developed than a year or two ago, with hints of mushrooms and lakeside. The fruit also appears somewhat riper, fuller and slightly more oaky than the initial impression in this vintage. Very harmonious and energetic at this point, it should develop well for another three to five. Disgorged October 30, 2019. (Disclaimer: ITB with Swedish importer Vin & Natur)

For some reason this bottle was very feral (especially in the nose). Nice tart red fruit and mineral complement but a bit too funky compared to past experiences.

Medium length. Various citrus (citrii?) including zest. Oaky notes. Will improve with cellaring.
