Community Tasting Note

ParisWino Likes this wine:

Friday, April 1, 2016 - Was very pleasantly surprised by this 15-year old Oregon pinot... fully mature yet drinking beautifully. Nose and palate (though the latter is more impressive than the former) are predominantly of red fruits, especially fraises de bois, dried strawberries and cranberries, with some blue fruits and floral/decaying floral notes and a bit of forest floor, but with an underlying sweetness. Mouthfeel is nicely balanced, tannins fully resolved and acidity only moderate; but the weight of the wine is lovely and not at all overdone. Could be a Laurent or other modern Burg producer from a very good 1er (not Chambolle) in a ripe year.
