Alongside the Matrot 19 to make a comparison, and work on entry exam MW...
More color, ripe dark cherry, some cooked fruits, intense ripeness shows, with smoky oak, not overwhelming, but feeling like a baby from toes to head...
Palate is big for a Pinot, intense fruit again, with some ripe extraction, med+ tannins, textrured wine but opposite to delicate Burgundy, its ripe , intense fruit, med+ acidity, and lingering power pinot flavors ...
Forget it about 5 years at least ... but will be rewarding for sure

Ruby. Airy red fruit aromas. Lighter weight. Elegant, citric, gentle stem signature. Needs a few years. I liked this and it reminded me of Volnay.

Opened this one to follow Kupe to justify my purchase. Grip slightly less, interesting berry features.

Ok, nothing special. Possibly could use a bit of age
