Fantastically bright auburn/sorrel color. The first inhalations detect meaty notes, almost like roast beef and bacon fat; aeration introduces sap and maple to the bouquet. The palate entry focuses directly on the resin, sap and maple qualities found in the latter stages of the nose; at midpalate the marzipan/ nougat flavor dominates. Ends bittersweet and intensely nutty. P.P.

What Is Blind Tasting?

All tastings reported in the Buying Guide are performed blind. Typically, products are tasted in peer-group flights of from 5-8 samples. Reviewers may know general information about a flight to provide context—vintage, variety or appellation—but never the producer or retail price of any given selection. When possible, products considered flawed or uncustomary are retasted.
