But hard work does pay off

and a lengthy finish

pure and wonderfully elegant nose displays notes of airy red and black pinot fruit

This is promising but in need of at least a few years of patience

A fabulous wine

Robert Fleury, Bolero Extra Brut other_regions_italy But hard work does payThe 2008 Extra Brut Bolro is a pure Pinot Noir, golden and evolving. The nose shows off crumbly Scottish shortbread with its promise of salty butter and textured richness alongside a smattering of white pepper. The baked and caramelized yet salty skin of Mirabelle plums adds an aromatic highlight but all here points to depth. The saltiness continues right onto the palate where a rounded but immensely contoured body channels Pinot power deep into soil.
