From glass. Another glass this day with a menthol-seeming nose. But sweet and tart red fruit behind it. High nose, also some cocoanut. Full and fresh palate, bright and red, and rather drying. Sweetened and was a more forward pleasure with air; until then, fine but closed and a bit prissy. Score perhaps generous, reflecting how I would have reacted to this if it were a CA pinot. Red burgundy: wine I like and sometimes crave, but the more glasses of red burgundy I get to drink, the fewer bottles I foresee myself buying.

No detailed notes but thought this was decent. Nothing spectacular, but a light easy drinking Pinot.

2008 Nicolas Potel Mazoyères-Chambertin (Frankrijk, Bourgogne, Côte de Nuits, Mazoyères-Chambertin Grand Cru) Kleur: Helder robijnrood Aroma / bouquet: Prachtige, nu al overweldigende en zwoele neus. Expressief fruit met rijpere en gebrande tonen (koffie, rokerig / smokey). Smaak / Afdronk: Vol maar elegant. Zachte zuren, boordevol rijpe tannines. Kracht met zachtheid en elegantie. Algemeen / potentieel: Geproefd vanuit vat. 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 12 + Smaak / Afdronk: 15 + Algemeen / potentieel: 9 = 91/100
