Garagiste Le Stagiaire Pinot Noir 2023
$36
This is spicy, red fruited, some dried mint and flowers. kind of exotic too with that cardamom pod thing. It’s medium-bodied, sappy and crunchy, cherry and strawberry, dried herb perfume, the tannin just sits so well within the wine and it lays on the charm from front to back. It’s savoury and saline, some almond paste, but has vibrancy and plenty of fruit. It has personality and more than a little chutzpah. More importantly, it drinks a charm. Drink 2024-2029+. 94 Points.
