Domaine Hudelot-Baillet
Bourgogne Pinot Noir
Burgundy, France
Nose has tart strawberry, ripe black cherry, blackberry, dried soil with peat and faint creamy oak notes.
Palate has ripe blackberry, ripe cherry, dried garden soil, thawed strawberries, light cedar influence, decent finish but we're underwhelmed overall. Maybe closing up now, revisit in 3-5Y, 2025-27.
Cork pulled, slow oxidation for 3H.
Solid pairing to toasted Israeli couscous, za'atar and lightly fried eggs from the backyard egg factory. For us, eggs are always a great pair to Bourgogne Rouge, they balance wonderfully.
(Also, for the record, no photo trickery on the food pic, our Australorp eggs are indeed that orange; Good diet equals good eggs.)
