2022 Les Villages Pinot Noir Bachelder
Concentrated by the tough-to-bear late winter event of February 2022, this wine has great natural colour; and such classic elements of top Pinot Noir: i.e. “Why I Love Pinot!” Although elegant, in concentration terms, this wine is immense and lightly astringent – ageability potential! A great, corrupt nose of red and black fruit shines – currently with cloves and spice behind and already turning agreeably tertière! Lovely and rose-petaled, and rich in the mouth. The striking acidity and the glycerine-silkiness simply surprise! The finish is long, and only slightly (but ripely) tannic. Shockingly good now, yet so ageable over half a decade! Here, right here, is a wine that will be largely drunk TOO YOUNG - but still has much, so much to give, to reveal! If you want to age a truly great Pinot Noir that doesn’t cost $$$, this is the one!
