'03 JP Brun Pinot Noir

[drssouth]

2003 Jean-Paul Brun, Pinot Noir, Terres D'orees, alc 12%....dark purple...nose is a bit muted....palate is one of earth and dry leaves with good pinot fruit showing through....good structure..sl sour but has some mouth watering tannins that seem to come through soon thereafter....Really seems too young to open...

Huh. I've had a couple of bottles of this in recent vintages and, while perfectly nice, it hadn't struck me as one to age very long.
