- 2010 Thierry Puzelat Pinot Noir Touraine - France, Loire Valley, Touraine (11/22/2011)
Love this expression of pinot noir from Touraine. Expressive tones of wet fallen leaves, tart cranberry and subtle tobacco on the nose with nice weight and grip to the palate. The flavors of cranberry and wild strawberry are tart and subtly sweet with smooth tannins on the finish. Drinking very nicely now, but can be cellared without worry for a while too.
without question the best <$20 pinot noir i've ever had.
