Tasting notes

Deep brick red colour. Pretty nose. Some Gevrey-notes of flowers with a slightly earthy, compost-like complexity. Evolved pinot noir. More low notes than perfume and not the most intense. Medium bodied in the mouth. Mature, but the fruit is still there. Evolved and a little earthy. Lots of compost and quite integrated oak. A little soft structure. A little "loose" and fleshy style. Lightly acidic on the finish. Little tannins. Nice wine, but perhaps a little beneath what you would expect from a grand cru.
