Lots going on here. Spicy, slightly stemmy nose, good fruit. Powerful tannins, good acidity. Good depth and length, but not entirely harmonious. (Drink or) keep. 91-93

Dinner with the wine group (Zazie's, San Francisco): Medium ruby; aromatic, black cherry, smoky; palate is medium bodied, low tannin, medium alcohol, medium-plus acidity, well balanced, richer black cherry fruit; finish is medium-long. Serious burgundy at a young but nice age. 92

Friendly nose of dark cherry and cranberry fruits, licorice, barest hints of violet with a certain vegetal/greenery element and mineral freshness. Classic, attractive Burgundy, looking for food today. I thought this particular bottle showed a bit of back-end warmth as the only nit I would point out on this young wine. Very Pinot with spicy, fine texture. Sexy Les Saint Georges in this early stage.

醒酒两个半小时,闻香有红果,香草,香料感,些许烤芝麻的香气,入口酸度高,单宁紧涩,量有点糊嘴,不过单宁颗粒很细腻,酒液咸,收口微甜,草莓一类的红果和芝麻的香气,余味满口红果,木质香气,伴随着淡淡奶味收尾。充分醒酒后酒体依然很紧实,酒处在最佳状态,香气复杂,口感柔和,风格优雅,各元素达到很好的平衡状态,感觉是超越产区常规水准的存在,这才领略了NSG的好,确实精彩。

This was far too young to show its best; others liked it more.
