Julicher Pinot Noir 07

$40.75 750 MLS

Martinborough,New Zealand:13.5%;$40[ screwcap; 8 clones of pinot noir, hand-picked; French oak some new]
Ruby and velvet, getting dark for pinot noir. Bouquet is very much syrah, again in the Crozes-Hermitage style, tending to leafy red fruits, with florals more jonquils than carnations. The fruit is therefore seriously lacking in physiological maturity and appropriate varietal character. Palate however is well-fruited and quite rich, and carefully oaked. There is a little European complexity and perhaps brett, but the leafyness persists right through, like lesser Crozes-Hermitage. This is pleasant drinking wine, but for varietal precision, greater physiological maturity, and less extraction, is needed. Cellar 3 – 8 years, in its style. GK 03/09
