A tight, lean, but flavorful PN. Not as forward and fruity as California versions, but more along the spectrum toward a nice villages wine from the Cote de Beaune.Dark, clear crystalline ruby. Very tight at first, the wine reluctantly starts to give up scents of cherry syrup and loads of stony minerals. Bone dry, with lean but persistent flavors of underbrush, dry cherry extract, and lots and lots of minerals. Full-bodied, with average acids. Needs some time in the cellar to soften, but it's still nice now. B(+). Was about $20 from wineaccess.com.
