Burgundy Tasting (Restaurant Brunnenstube, Beinstein): Clear, deep golden color. Wonderful smoky and dense nose, very expressive and complex. On the palate classic DomPi: Quite baroque, some caramel, warm fruit, noticeable sweetness, smoky. But also with a wonderful depth and pressure. Very long and lingering finish. Ready for the show, but no need to hurry, will last for at least another decade. 93-94

NobleRottersSydney - Bordeaux night (Glass Brasserie, Sydney): {cork} [Andrew] Appreciably darker in colour than the 08. Less autolysis on the nose and indeed palate; this was more about nuts with a fino-sherry hint than yeast. Squash flavours, yellowing flowers, even a bit of tinned corn. Not that it was oxidised in any way, but maybe just showing the extra years and the effect of a very hot vintage compared to the preceding 2008. Seemed fuller-bodied also, with more obvious and aggressive bubbles, but finished only medium length. Certainly at – or even beyond – peak drinking, assuming a typical bottle.
