  Pronounced nose intensity with notes of red fruits, strawberry, flora. Needs a lot of aeration. It gets better with more air. Probably one of the best 2011 vintage wine I have tasted.

  Very refined. Displays celery inflection oft associated with 2011. As the wine becomes deeper and richer with air, any less desirable inflection is negligible. Excellent wine in a mediocre vintage.

  Having had the 2011 Rousseau Clos Saint Jacques a few times this year, I can confirm that Rousseau didn’t do so well in 2011, unlike Fourrier 2011 (which are beautiful). Restrained nose of mixed berries, with a stern stemmy bouquet. Subtle perfume and underlying sweet earthy Gevrey note with austere green tannins. Gevrey Chambertin 2013? (89-90/100)

  Pnp, bright garnet in color, stemmy nose with strawberry/cranberry aroma which I adore a lot, a personal preference. Quite concentrated on palate, good acidity with mild sweet fruits and oak, tannin evolving and quite approachable. Hint of hawthorn and the acidity renders the wine very enjoyable im a perfect harmony. Definitely punching above its weight as a premium cru. Entering drinking window.
