  Super Bowl LVIII 2024 (Alpharetta, GA): Cellar Diving: Full disclosure... palate fatigue was in full effect at this point in the night. I enjoyed this more than the two Red Burgs that came just before it. Still young and could benefit from more time in the cellar.

  medium deep young red color, still some reduction, roasted coffee on the nose with plum and cherry, on the palate still very young and evolving at a glacial pace, tannins still evident and overall shut down, this is in a better place but still a bit of a question mark long term, it will be a long wait in any event.

  Love the nose and touch of minerality on the palate but don’t enjoy the slightly sour and short finish.

  PNP. Il y a encore beaucoup d'arômes primaires, sur les fruits foncés, mais la texture est très belle, tannique mais sans astringence. Plus de complexité qu'escompté de ma part à ce stade-ci pour le millésime (les 2012 mes semblent souvent fermés ces temps-ci). Très bon.

  Tuesday Night Double Blind $40+ (Alpharetta, GA): See through dull red, lighter rim; vanilla, smoky, vanilla and strawberry, light cherry, fesh and bright, good mid-palate density, very young and sappy almost to a fault as it hurts drinkability, time should help this; called '11 Clos des Mouches.
