2011 Burgs (Noize): Another cracker from the first flight. Sensual, floral nose that had a touch of smoke; equal in quality to the Pataille's, but less sauvage. Nicely full on the palate, and straightforwardly pleasurable, with some violet and a gloriously crisp red-fruited finish. My WOTN, although only the group's fourth favourite.
I gave 93pts to the 2008 a few months ago, perhaps this is a wine I should start buying!

1st of a case, ready now but no rush, we’ll balanced, decent depth for the vintage, lively acidity with just enough fruit, a decent finish. Good value here

Totally uplifting, fresh fruit with gravitas and weight, counteracted by savory flavors and ripe tannin..amazing crunchy texture, near-perfect balance. Long finish leaving you wanting for more. You know a great wine when you and your companion finish the bottle without realizing it. Absolutely delicious. Only 4 bottles left.

Dark medium-medium(+) ruby, slow moving tears @13% abv. Closed nose of red fruit, forest floor and tobacco (sic). Dry, medium acidity, medium tannin, alcohol and medium(-)-medium body. Fruit-driven focused intricate and evolving palate of strawberry and cherry jam, milk chocolate notes. Long-very long defined finish with bright acidity and specks of pepper, forest floor. Well balanced, fruit-driven and precise Pinot Noir. Bravo! Drink now.

Drinking ok now but still seems to be developing, it’s pretty good after 3 hours open after being fairly mute to start. It’s got a bit of earth and nice depth of blueberry fruit, the finish is a little short, aside from that its a pretty lovely glass of wine
