2004 Picardy I found this is a more delicate Pinot than the previous few vintages, but it has distinctive varietal characteristics in a light fresh package. The nose has enticing cedar, strawberry and mulberry aromas with a hint of new leather and smoky, toasted oak. The palate is refined with red current, cherry, mushroom nuances and a tell-tale lingering savoury finish. Structure is tight with nicely balanced tannins, ensuring good cellar life. This would be a fine accompaniment with poultry or even salmon.
