Irancy Chérelle Pinot Noir

This is like a Cru Beaujolais, but more fresh and mineral. It offers a mix of Nordic red berries, a touch of blood, and flowers, all on a barnyard canvas. Not a simple wine, it's well-balanced and at a good age, though still young - you wouldn't guess it's already 11 years old. It's juicy with dry tannins, though the flowers are slightly wilted. Truly beautiful.
