Ballot Millot Vintage:2020 The wine hits the palate(vinified with ~30% whole clusters). Here the nose is both more expressive and decidedly more floral in character with its aromas of fresh red berries, earth and a hint of the sauvage. There is again fine energy and volume as well as a more refined mouthfeel to the middle weight flavors that exude a bracing minerality on the bitter cherry inflected finale. This could use better depth, but the underlying material appears to be present for that to occur
