By the glass at Les 110 de Taillevent, London. 70ml Coravin. Very pretty on the nose, so elegant and the riper/oakier style of Serafin helps boost this humble village but still the boost is an add on and the wine still feels pure and with the true style of the smokier fruit of Gevrey. Solid 90-91 and probably better sooner than later. Better on the nose than on the palate as expected.

One word: wow. Opened this bottle and immediately had nice currants and subtle hints of pepper. Taste was fantastically balanced. Fell in love with this wine. Will look for other vintages.

A pris plusieurs heures à s'ouvrir, offrant alors un très beau nez locasse et large, mais demeurant végétal en bouche. Se bonifiera avec les années. 87-88

Knightsbridge 2011 Burgundy Tasting and Sale (Northbrook, IL): Tasting, brief note. Fresh black cherry and blackberry aromas and flavors with subtle spice. Moderate intensity, but probably the best balanced of the 5 Gevrey Villages tasted for near-term consumption.

Super-fine tannins, very restrained. A lovely wine, a bit short.
