Nose with lots of red fruits, cranberry, dried cherry, abundant Asian spices.some tobacco, not very tertiary Tannins mostly resolved and quite smooth, fresh acidity. Fully in drinking window, can keep in my cellar for many years
Light vintage, very good wine.

Burgundy and pinot noir (Wink Wine Bar): Very nice aromatics, smooth and elegant, classic grand cru Burgundy, but some glucose, strawberry sweet tarts on the palate. The nose was floral, dry roses, but fruit and flavor were lacking, with a bit of plum, leather, strawberry. This wine was surely better a few years ago, as the vintage might indicate. Though the midpalate was thin and the finish lacking, the wine was delicate, silky, and feminine, and enjoyed on its own, sans beef bourguignon and charcuterie.

Very nice fruit. Decanted 2 hours prior to drinking. Typical Pinot notes...good tannin structure remains
