2.5 hour decant. Dark fruited with a brighter finish. Really nice level of baking spice, finishing with some woodiness. Tannins are moderate at this point. The mouthfeel is very light compared to the flavor profile. Another hour and the fruit rises and shakes off the remaining tannin. Another delicious wine from Chantereves

To echo prior notes, this is fragrant and delicious, somewhat darker fruited, and is drinking very well right now without too much overt tannin or heavy structure or oak to get through, whole cluster but that's also not too apparent. It's an interesting style, fine for early drinking but not at all light/crunchy/glou-glou.

Decanted for two hours. Aromas/flavors of red fruits, tea, and light spice. Fresh, but on the riper side. That being said, it’s very well balanced. Medium complexity/finish. Drinkable now, with some upside over the next several. 91-92.

Good wine! Decanted for 3 hours, this was another fragrant Pinot with notes of black tea, autumn leaves, spices, and bright red fruit. Nice balance and structure, easy to drink already. Let this one age!
