4.2
Dill and barnyard on the entry, ripe black berries and fried sunflower seeds underneath - a veggy nose that needs a minute to settle. Blackberry and mulberry rise next, tobacco running through them. The tannin still reads green, a touch steamy, but the wine carries itself with balance and posture. The carbonic Pinot doing its quietly composed thing.
Dill, barnyard, ripe black berries, fried sunflower seeds. Good acidity, though the structure feels slightly unfocused. Tasty nonetheless. Long aftertaste, juicy, beautiful. Mushrooms creep in. A natural wine that's messy in all the right ways - and a few of the wrong ones.
About
Blue Velvet is Mythopia's whole-bunch carbonic-style Pinot Noir, from the Arbaz parcel below Ayent castle. Six months of whole-bunch maceration in airtight steel, then three years in old oak without topping up. The cuvée name likely points to David Lynch's 1986 film. 12% ABV. No SO2, no fining, no filtration.
