RSV/Richebourg dinner - came across as more structured than the '08 Hudelot Riche. Smoke, blood & wood on the nose; Powerful on the palate but still felt a tad closed. Should be much better with more age...

AK's birthday: Similar to the Suchots from the same vintage that I tried at 67PM last month. Silky fruit with classic Vosne spice and a little earth but quite unyielding at the moment. Superb balance though, just needs more time for the wine to come out of its shell and become more expressive again.

This was a little tough to get a bead on tonight. When I last had this in barrel, it was so effusively spicy, a dream of RSV. Tonight it was excellent, but less expressive and quite rich and full. Still, wonderful Vosne spice that was impossible to miss. This just needs time. I would give this another 5 years.

Jim brought this GC for his BD dinner. I found it was too young to serve now as it was tight and lean, even it was decanted.

Dark red fruit, with deep meaty and spicy character...if blind I’d have a hard time guessing between Gevrey or Vosne. Surprisingly big/coiled for a 14
