Poulsard de L'Ami Karl, from 2ha plot. Bottled in April. Quite struck match notes, needs 6 months to lose it. Quite smoky, chalky, red fruit & vegetal. 2014 vintage. Small volumes due to fruit fly problems eating the juice (due to the thin skins of Poulsard and the early ripening). Takes swirling but the match note has gone. Sweeter than 2011, more fresh fruit. Good vibrancy. 89

Bright, berry flavors. Much lighter than the California pinots. Darren and Aubrey brought.

Like eating grapefruit in an attic-- in the best possible way.
