June 19, 2021 - C-O-L-A Cola -- cherry cola, specifically, though without the sweetness. This is a full-bodied, complex pinot noir, with an initial blast of acidity, and some lingering tannins. By day two, the tannins had mellowed and the wine was softer and rounder. I recommend drinking this sooner if you like, as I do, the structuring acidity and chewy tannins, or store it longer if you prefer something richer and rounder.
This was briefly available at wine.com for $36, which a great bargain for this level of complexity and sophistication and drinkability. At the normal price of $70, it is a less obvious value proposition (though it is still likely to provide more pleasure than many red Burgundies that are available at that price).2 people found this helpful Comment -
