So much better than my previous note. Settled in and looking forward to re-visit in 2020. Structure, fruit, tart, slight bitterness, solid tannins, dark colour, good length.

A bit closed at first. Opened up eventually to reveal dusky (almost a bit smokey?) dense fruit. Lovely balance in acidity and tannins. A truly beautiful wine.

Taut and mostly closed nose with hints of new oak . Quite classy. Entry onto palate is firm and mineral tinged with a good underpinning of acidity. Medium-full and austere at first. Great improvement with food and the following day when it showed more textured fruit with elan and complexity . A value burgundy.

Blackberry, cassis, sous bois; thick, layered, relatively long lingering finish, but without much depth

A food wine with high acidity but lovely pinot 2nd level undertones.
