  Wines you should have bought by cases (San Shu Gong): Pnp. Drank blinded side by side with the 2009 comparing the 2 different era of winemaker. Most guess this as the younger plot and guesses were gevrey or chambolle due to the 2009. Rather backward, jammy, some earth and burnt rubber. On the 2nd day, it blossom especially on the palate with hint of red cherry, mint and spice.

  Champagnes and dinner with Alan and friends: Just as classy as the previous wine, clearly from another exceptional producer. Guessed ‘10 Suchots because of the purity of the fruit. A seductive, high-toned nose, on the palate it was more ready and delicate than the Meo. Someone said this was Chambolle-like which made sense so thought the maker must have been H-N. On the night I preferred this to the Meo by virtue it being more open, but both were top of the class standard.

  Nose: candy, strawberry, raspberry, cherry, tar, vanilla
  Notes: still quite young at this moment and I remain questionable on the balance of the wine at this very moment. Tasted together with a 2008 and the 2006 seems a lot more not ready. I believe the wine will benefit from further aging for at least another 5 years and I am unable to give a favorable rating at this very moment.

  Not as great as previous bottles. Still very good wine - lovely and elegant nose of daark fruits and subtle soil hints, also some hints of Vosne spice but not prominent at all, even after a few hours. Balanced on the palate with delicious dark fruit, good acidity, and a silky voluptuous texture. The 2006 issue with drying back-end tannins is apparent in this bottle, however, and the wine lacks the overall impact (and spiced aromatics) of a great Suchots. Previous bottles were better. Who knows...
