Opened for an hour or two before drinking. This is in a good place A lovely pinot with great Burgundian credentials. All the 2014 single vineyards seem to be drinking well

P&P with about 25 min of airtime in the glass before pouncing. Aromas comprise mostly of Sassafras along with root vegetables and some sweet baking type spices. Good showing, I think the Louise vineyard is the lowest in elevation amongst the ‘ladies’ aka the other Cristom single vineyards, and the earliest to mature. Seems about right, with the dark spice laden fruit fully woven into the wines nooks and crannies - very clean, with good closing bite on the finish. No danger of falling off a cliff, but it’s ready.

Parfaitement à point. Assez typique de la région. Bien fait et agréable.

This is stunning! Tannins have softened up, fruit has gotten a bit more serious. Drinking wonderfully !
