This is a very nice premier cru Burgundy. Garnet in color, clear and bright. The nose has cherries, slight cinnamon, and spice. Medium bodied. Very light tannins. On the palate, cherries, slight sour cherries with a bit of spice. Nice finish. Drinking well now and should continue for another seven to ten years. Nice on its own but probably better with food. Salmon would be a nice choice.
Visiting wine country? Why spend $250 per day in tasting fees when you can get the wine pass and pay less then half of that? 1 Day with the wine pass = $125+ in savings. 2 Days with the wine pass = $250+ in savings. The Priority Wine Pass
At or near peak and drinking well. Garnet in color, clear and bright. The nose is great with cherries, slight funk. slight black cherries and spice. Medium bodied. On the palate, bold cherry and some black cherry fruit. Slight forest floor and mushroom underneath. Nice energy and balance. Good finish. This should drink well for another ten to twelve years. Great on its own, this would work well with salmon or a mushroom dish.
This is a still red wine (Pinot Noir) made in the Champagne region of France. Garnet in color, clear and bright. The nose is nice with cinnamon, cherries, slight black cherry, and a bit of poblano pepper. Medium bodied. Good acidity. Light tannins. On the palate, this is a slightly watery, slightly bitter note that is unusual in a Pinot but also plenty of cherries and a bit of green pepper. It is a very good wine, but it is also one of the more interesting Pinots I have had. There is a nice complexity. It was served with a bunch of wines, and this would be fascinating to drink on i
