Friday, March 8, 2024 - Heater week; 3/8/2024-3/17/2024 (Chicago, IL): Served double blind. A meaty nose had me thinking that this might have been syrah right on the initial impression, but a second sniff clearly brings you to Burgundy. Clearly very young on the palate given the fresh fruit (a mix of red and black) here -- I guessed 2021, and with a relative earthy complexion I guessed Nuits. On the other hand, the midpalate density here wasn't quite there, so I guessed a village or lesser 1er cru level. If anything, this is held back by the grapes' more humble origins.
