Light toasty notes on the nose with hints of spices. Lightly oxidized in the Selosse style which just leaves you with a finish that goes on for ages and ages.... one of the best bottles I’ve had. #happynewyear

Good chance this is my wine of the year despite it being the first week of Jan.

NV. Pinot Noir only, zero dosage. Looks like a light rose. Hazelnut, bruised pear, no obvious leesy character. Full concentration. On palate, very high acidity - not integrated and overwhelms the fruit for me. There's a lot of concentration but I find everything overwhelmed by the acidity. Salty. No obvious red fruit either. Some chalky notes on finish. An acquired taste. Not for me.
