While the 2020 Domaine des Perdrix Pinot Noir Bourgogne impresses with its inviting dark ruby hue, there's a notable departure from the expected translucence traditionally associated with Pinot Noir. The wine leans towards a darker complexion, which, for purists, might challenge the conventional visual expectations of the varietal.
Furthermore, on the palate, there's a faint echo of Grenache-like qualities that may surprise Pinot Noir enthusiasts. The wine exhibits a touch more depth and richness than anticipated, veering slightly towards the robust characteristics commonly associated with Grenache rather than adhering strictly to the delicate nature often found in classic Pinot Noir expressions.
However, despite these deviations it remains a commendable wine, offering a unique perspective on the varietal and the vintage. While it may challenge some preconceptions, its vibrant fruit profile and Burgundian charm still make it a noteworthy selection for those open to exploring the nuances of Pinot Noir in a different light.

Big Burgundy Tasting (Prince Sydney, 40 Hansard Street): A little muted dark cherry with a slight tarragon note. Juicy, tangy, savoury black cherry, a little almost bitter chocolate note on the finish. Okay.

Dinar al Celler d’en Toni d’Andorra. Bon Borgonya, un basic, pero molt fi.

Petit pinot d"entrée de gamme.
Assez intense et rustique.
On repassera pour la finesse.
Correct sans plus.

Très dense c’est massif et plutôt unidimensionnel présentement. Vaut mieux les laisser se reposer en cave pour 2-3 ans…88-90 pts
