Picardy Pinot Noir 1996 This first release Picardy Pinot Noir was produced from 2 clones -Upright and Droopy. The palate has good length and integration of oak, fruit and acid. Fruit flavours are in the lighter spectrum by Picardy's standards- with soft cherry and strawberry melding with secondary characters which could be described as briary or earthy. This wine is drinking very well now. Overall this was a great wine off young vines. For Picardy Pinot Noirs the colour seems to grow as the wines get older. This wine has not yet started to brown. Drink now. |
