  March 23, 2014 - Had it at the Blantyre in Lenox, MA. Recommended by Christelle, the fantastic sommelier of this fantastic country retreat. This is simply a beautifully aged Pinot Noir. Red ruby color, with no signs of bricking. On the nose it is complex, with subtle aromas of black currants, cherries, smoke and a softly gamey quality. In the mouth this has gorgeous concentration and a velvety texture. Medium-bodied, yet fully flavored, and a precise level of acidity that makes it feel so well integrated. Supple ripe tannins and lovely flavors of cassis, blackberry, and the typical earthiness that is so distinctive of this appellation. Enormous purity and balance, this is simply: bottled elegance.
