Written Notes

I asked Paul Bara which of the vintages he has produced during his lifetime he was most satisfied with. “Come here and I'll show you,” he said, and he fetched a normally disgorged half bottle of this peerless wine. The mousse was weak and the color glowed amber. In the nose I was met by an indescribably wonderful wave of sensations: mint chocolate, rum, peaches, wood, and honey. The flavor was even more impressive, if that's possible, with an Yquem-like structure and sweetness. The flavor was exceptionally deep, uniting mint chocolate with rum liqueur. When Pinot Noir tastes like this, even the most confirmed Chardonnay lover can't fail to be converted. Winner in the Pinot Noir class at the Millennium Tasting.
