Tasting Notes
"Medium to deep colour, not quite clear. Very long slow fermenter and shows on the muddled nose with some oxidation. That is not how the wine will finish up by the time it is bottled. Give this much more time, it has not even been racked yet. The wine on the second half of the palate shows all its qualities with a sweet deep raspberry fruit. Just some oxidative étanales to sort out. Very backward indeed, but this will all get sorted out: though I cannot give it the top marks it will probably deserve as it shows today." - Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
