  4/22/2024 - Putnam Weekley Likes this wine: 90 Points

  Scented. The first drink presents very withdrawn flavor in favor of clarity in gossamer structure. Full ortho/retral aromatic reading crucially completes the image. Whisper dry; animated with willow fuzz, spearmint, impacted pomegranate extract; broken cocoa/soil; overbrewed black tea; translucent tannin. This is a botanical breezeway. At first I was worried this might be suppressed, but it opens very nicely. Price, availability, and uncrowded style of expression (these days) represents extreme anomaly. Remarkably fresh tasting for 10 year old upper Loire Pinot Noir.
