The profile of this 2017 is really Burgundian Côte de Nuits in terms of structure, tannins, and acidity. You can expect a darker Pinot with leather, earthiness, and licorice undertones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"463\" data-end=\"811\"\u003eThe finish and the tannic structures really remind me of the newer 2022 Elysia Pinot I tasted earlier this month. Flavours of dark plum, red cherry, blackberry, dry sage, violet, and black licorice. The mid-palate is still fresh. The tannins are still active. The texture is soft and silky. The finish lingers with minerality and Christmas spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"813\" data-end=\"882\"\u003eThis wine has another 3 years to go before any decline. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e (Carl Boucher, Sept 21, 2025). \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lightning Rock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51237978276133,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/1984\/6693\/files\/2017pinotlr.jpg?v=1758660454","url":"https:\/\/carlswineclub.com\/products\/2017-lightning-rock-elysia-vineyard-pinot-noir-91pts","provider":"Carl's Wine Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
