Nose has ripe black cherry, wet leather, distant wood smoke (spring vine burn), cherry reduction and dry garden soil. Palate has tart cherry, under-ripe plum, wet slate, green herbs, lightly creamy oak barrel notes with mild tannins. The energy in this bottle seems restrained. Decanted 6H, and this is not enough time for this youthful wine. This bottle will likely need a decade to concentrate. The third of several 2014 La Pousse d'Or bottles we acquired late in 2019. This, as expected, needs another 10-15+ years (2031+) to show its truer self. (Notes will be updated tomorrow, this wine needs much more airing out.) 24 Hour Update: Nose is black cherry compote, cherry jam, wet leather and dry garden soil persists. Palate is dried cherry/blackberry, wet leather and dried tart cherry. More accessible then yesterday, yet only years of rest will open this wine for full enjoyment. 48 Hour Update: Nose is black cherry jam, cherry juice concentrate, dry crushed rocks with light acetic acid notes. Palate is loosing a few steps today, and gaining some tannins, dried cherry and dried green herbs, yet still interesting.
