Black and red berry start comes across moderately ripe, then almost hollow in the middle. Didn't seem as rich as I'd expect from the vintage. Ok for its level. Doubt there is much upside.

Tuesday Night Double Blind $40+: Dark ruby core with light rim; sulfur, sour red fruit, a bit reserved on the nose; firm tannin and structure, mid is a bit reserved, not a ton of mineral but nice fat structure and balance; didn't get the extent of mineral but was on Groffier Seuvrees.

Cotes de Nuits vs. Cotes de Beaune Blind Tasting (Bin 75 Alpharetta, GA): Darker ruby; spice, tea, dark fruit, lovely nose, balanced, juicy and youthful, lacks some persistence, seems like this had seen enough air, complex yet undelineated; delicious.

Lots of meaty dark fruit on the nose, some clunky oak, textured and lacking some harmony, good but either needed more air or another year or two.

Lighter color, bright red. Crisp, a bit tight/tense, younger. Has to be Burg, guessed 2011 NSG.
