Saturday, April 10, 2021 - This is young but I think very promising on what was showing last night. Crunchy crisp red fruits feast from sour cherry to cranberry over to strawberries. Very balanced acidity adds to the crispness. The wine is medium + intense on the palate and finishes long with a mineral aftertaste. Oak aging shows modestly in the back but gives it just that little extra.
Definitely decant for an hour or 2 to bring out the most or tuck away for a few years and hopefully be rewarded with all the tertiary treats Burgundy is famous for. Curious on how others see this wine's potential.
