Nose is beautiful! Like a Cote de Beaune 1er cru. The palate is another story - it has an acidic bite to it, and the alcohol is really poking through. Sat on this too long?

Started off a little shy - I thought it was over the hill. After a couple of hours it came out of its shell and was drinking beautifully. Not a profound wine - was drinking like a nice cote de beaune village wine at its peak. Faded considerably on day two

Has been a few years since I checked in on this. Still very light in body and color - lighter than I remember from my first bottle. Great acidity for a hot year. Really not at all about the fruit - has a nice herbaceous, menthol edge and is "green" in the best possible way. Just a touch of bitterness. The perfect Wednesday night wine.

Darker red than most PN's; smooth; soft; rich dark fruit with peppery flavors coming through. Clean finish but has a nice dry lingering touch.
