Deep, ephemeral nose. Some flint and matchstick as well. Superbly mineral as all these wines are it seems. Perfumed cherry and cherry flower. Very very aromatic and intense. Really expressive of the place. So chalky and mineral. Some funk as well. Will blow off it seems. Palate is silky and sweet with tremendous grip and structure. Deep and dense with awesome mouthfeel and structure with a deep and tangy finish. Great purity. Chalky finish. Genius depth on the mid palate and moves into a very long finish. Elegant and airy but also substantial. Terrific. So complete and complex. Has structure to age 15 years. Needs 3-5. A serious Pinot. Wowza. After air this smells like high class Vosne Romanee but with a Rheingau twist. Serious aromas. Floral, berry expansive and deep. Palate is so nimble and has that red Riesling thing big time. Gorgeous.
