Saturday, August 10, 2019 - PHMG WAG: Tour de France 2019 (Col' de Lyon): Like all the reds, this was double decanted 3 hours before the tasting. Start with a brilliant ruby color of medium intensity, and an open nose of cherries and earth. Deep bowl of barely ripe red cherries, earth and spice notes follow on the palate with good structure. Give it a little more time: 2020-2027.

Side note: many of us did a blind Reidel Vinum Pinot glass tasting (Extreme vs. Oregon/New World vs. Burgundy/Old World) and VAST majority preferred the New World glass. In the past when I've done this with Oregon Pinot, Denise and I prefer the Burgundy glass-- go figure.
