Another Mr. Wright special! A wonderful French Pinot Noir that lingers and is a bargain! — 2 months ago
I’ve been drinking this slowly over a week and a half. At this point it tastes like a fortified or mulled wine. It’s deep, inky like ox blood, burnt copper color around the rim. The smell is mulled red fruit, raspberry, strawberry, dry earth, purple flowers, sweet lavender. Very delicate tannins remain with an acidity that tickles the edges of the tongue and fades quickly. What you’re left with is something that resembles a young fortified wine with beautiful red fruit, earth, a floral element that lingers, and a slight hint of mushroom. It’s quite lovely and unexpected. — 6 months ago

Domaine de Hospices de Beaune Cuvée Brunet 1969, Burgundy, France
#AgedWineTuesday
Beautiful color of ruby with a wide brick rim.
Not too much on the nose right out of the bottle, and very dry on the palate with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel.
Showing cherries, blueberries, raspberries, light oak, spices, vinaigrette, herbs, wet leaves, earth, peppercorn and light vegetables.
Long finish with no tannins at all.
This 55 year old Pinot Noir from Burgundy is still drinking very nicely. Gentle and fruity right out of the bottle, and gets earthier as it opens up.
Showing nice complexity with a soft mouthfeel.
Easy drinking right out of the bottle, and good by itself or with food.
12% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
