Domaine de la côte pure 2016 is an interesting animal. Initiates with a bit overload of cola and spices, but this settles with some air. Then pure berry fruit emerges: dark cherry, raspberries and cranberry sauce - still with mild baking spice notes, some cola and a subtle herbal touch. Medium-bodied with ripe and sleek tannins. Prickling acidity. Slight stone bitterness and mild spices in the finish. Not quite Bloom’s Field, but still very enjoyable.

Nice Pinot nose with raspberry fruit and an undergrowth character. Velvety texture with refreshing acidity. Touch of spicy oak. Raspberry and Cola.

Needed a few years to come together. Now it is much more integrated, with great complexity and length.

Very interesting wine, a lot of fresh red berries, funky, lively adidity, light-footed but good length and refined tannins
