Saturday, February 23, 2013 - Top 09 and 10 red Burgundy tasting (Capital Grill at Tysons corner, VA): Purchased at release, the color is a lightly darker than usual, tropical fruits, butter scotch and tarte tartin. Medium body, a burnt sugar note, medium acidity and relatively short finish. It isn’t obviously premoxed yet not as fresh as one expects from less than ten year old GC white burgundy, especially a Niellon. As expected, the wine slightly improved with a couple hours of air showing a bit more focus. This showing and the vintage, I am not a buyer.
