Community Tasting Notes 5

    June 2, 2023 - Still very primary and park purple in the glass.

    A beautiful, delicate nose with ripe red fruits, violets, roses, menthol and undergrowth.

    Light to medium bodied, fresh with great acidity and a little tannic grip still pretty restrained but a nice drink now.

    I think this has a little upside but I would drink in the next 3 to 5 years.

    Well made wine

    March 29, 2022 - PnP. Deep garnet color. Reticent nose with a hint of ripe red fruit. Good body and mouthfeel. Bursting with crunchy ripe red fruit layered with spice and minerality. Finish lingers, if rather austere in its youth. Built for the long haul, this is brooding. This one needs some more time in the cellar to come together. After a couple of hours in the glass this turns almost jammy. Very ripe finish.

    March 27, 2022 - Un nez assez discret, mais un vin avec une belle énergie, une certaine puissance et carrure en fin de bouche surtout, assez plein et riche mais sans lourdeur, a besoin d’être carafé à coup sur pour s’ouvrir un peu sur du fruit au profil plus noir que rouge. 89-90

    Needs some air to open up, the nose is discrete to reveal eventually a black fruit profile mostly, lots of energy, fairly rich and full but not too heavy, has a good structure and the finish is fairly powerful.

    March 11, 2021 - Vin assez puissant, rond, très juteux, on sent le fruit mûr d’une année chaude, mais il montre tout de même une bonne fraîcheur. Les tanins sont enfouis sous le fruit gourmand. Agréable maintenant, joufflu, mais probablement meilleur dans un an ou deux. 89+ pts

    March 13, 2020 - Visite au Domaine Paul Pillot: Superbe! Nez charmeur, belle bouche au fruit mûr, belle rondeur, assez gras pour l’appellation, élégant. 90 pts
