Reduction. There is more size, weight and richness to the intensely mineral-driven medium weight flavors that possess a rounded mid-palate but again tighten up immediately on the dusty, linear and moderately austere finale. This should benefit from a few years of bottle age to add depth and flesh out.

À propos de Burghound.com
Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
