2020 Sylvain Pataille Marsannay Le Chapitre

Incredibly deep dark purple. Ripe, picked late, whole bunch and verging on pyrazine but probably more white pepper instead. Very backward, fresher behind, much darker colour of fruit, will be complete and powerful but I have not fallen in love with it so much today. Sensational length of aftertaste, so it may just be in an awkward phase. Tasted: November 2021. Jasper Morris 89-92
