Impromptu opening - closed at first but showing cherries, scents and undergrowth, but the revelation was on the next day when without vacuvin-ing only sealing the bottle, the wine stayed fresh and elegant. Sweet redcurrant fruit with scents of tea and blossom, underscored by a little tannin and pleasing acidity at the end. Good stuff!

Opened to go with a webinar from Anna Spooner (Wine Society) on whole bunch fermentation who was showing SP’s 2018 Bourgogne. Scented Pinot nose with hints of rose petals and tea (whole bunch!?) with rich silky cherry fruit, nice length and soft ripe tannins. Lovely to drink and what a bargain in 2016!

This bottle was definitely past its best. The wine had a brown tint. It had a slight aroma and taste of vinegar.

Still plenty of life, but just a little simple.
