A dead-ringer of Burgundy with mushrooms, moss, forest berries and orange zest. Textured, medium-bodied on the palate with a very long, layered finish. Goes on and on. Drink now or hold.
The 2021 Grand Père Pinot Noir comes from the same property as Grand Mere in Villa Bastías. But this part of the plot has a northern exposure, the soil has more sand and less stones and it doesn't have the influence from the river like the Grand Mère does. So, the exposure is warmer, but the soils are cooler, if you like, and the wines are balanced. 2021 was a cooler year, and the wine is impressive, marked by the climate from the year, perfumed and elegant with notes of orange peel and an ethereal palate with very good balance and subtleness through very fine tannins. Very supple.
Aromatically restrained, but the palate of this light-bodied red is mouthwatering and savory, with floral herb and toasted spice notes that cling to the bright cranberry and cherry core. Ends with fine tannins and nice length, offering a persistent spice note.
