Domaine Drouhin Cuvee Louise Pinot Noir Oregon - 2004 (750ml) Flanders Oud Bruin Pol Roger Brut Réserve diplays

Pol Roger Brut Réserve diplays a beautiful golden straw coloured hue

Its rich complexity of ginger

who had owned this estate for decades prior to selling it to their neighbors

and a whisper of smoke

The question is whether it will have a second wind later in life

Domaine Drouhin Cuvee Louise Pinot Noir Oregon - 2004 (750ml) Flanders Oud Bruin Pol Roger Brut Réserve diplaysBright ruby red. Expressive, floral accented aromas of candied raspberry, cherry cola, five spice powder and herbs. Juicy and broad on entry, then tighter in the middle, offering energetic red and dark berry flavors that turn spicier on the back half. Finishes sappy and very long, leaving cola and cherry notes behind. Seems a bit primary now but I suspect that this will be drinking well by its fifth birthday. Josh Raynolds Vinous 92 points
