The 2013 Pinot Noir Cuvée du Tonnelier has an attractive, very pure bouquet with red cherries, raspberry and compelling mineral scents that surface with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, grippy tannin, quite foursquare in the mouth while the finish is a little pinched, suggesting that another 12 months will benefit this wine. It is a very respectable Pinot Noir in what was a tricky vintage.
