Wine Tasting: Latour Marsanny Pinot Noir

Name:  Latour Marsanny
Variety: Pinot Noir

Region: Cote d'Or

Country: France
Year: 2010
Price: $35

Shop review: Light medium cherry red color with pale meniscus; reduction, floral, tart red fruit nose; tasty, tart red fruit, floral, mineral palate; needs 2 years; medium-plus finish.

My review:  On sale for $18. I really wanted to like this wine, but in the end, I couldn't justify purchasing it. The wine was pretty earthy with some hints of berry, but it just sort of fell flat. I was expecting much more of a punch for a wine that should have been $35.
