2016 Bourgogne Rouge

The 2016 Bourgogne Pinot Noir has a healthy dark garnet color. The bouquet is clean, pure and quite generous with blackberry, raspberry preserve and undergrowth scents, all well defined. The palate is medium-bodied with a fresh, tart entry. Higher acidity than the 2015, this feels sharp, almost citric at the moment, but there is sufficient fruit here to maintain balance and the length is reassuringly long enough.
