Birthday Party Wines

A Party for Cindy

1966 Potel Volnay Santenots

Celebrating a birthday was the event to pull a few corks on some outstanding wines.  One the 1966 Nicolas Potel Volnay Santenots was the highlight.  Upon opening, a haunting aroma of smokey embers and Slim Jim beef sticks immediately fills the nose.  
Followed by chocolate and espresso on the front and wet stone and lively mature fruit on the wonderful mid-palate.  Ending beautifully with layers and layers of complex flowers and black cherry.  A gem of Pinot with many, many years of life left.  More to come.--BacchusBrad
