Robert Fleury, Bolero Extra Brut Vintage:2008 100% new French oak) --The 2008 Extra Brut Bolro is a pure Pinot Noir, golden and evolving. The nose shows off crumbly Scottish shortbread with its promise of salty butter and textured richness alongside a smattering of white pepper. The baked and caramelized yet salty skin of Mirabelle plums adds an aromatic highlight but all here points to depth. The saltiness continues right onto the palate where a rounded but immensely contoured body channels Pinot power deep into soil.
