  Jason & Simon's Village Burgundy Tasting Dinner (67 Pall Mall): My wine. Showing well - always a relief at these things - still purple in colour, there's some substance there but at this stage still a pronounced, not quite shrill acidity. I could see the familial resemblance to the 01, and could imagine this will follow a similar trajectory.

  Village Burgundy from Good Producers (67 Pall M): Bright fruited and joyful. Smoky, rich and long. Some blackcurrant notes complement the plum fruit, fresh, long and balanced. Yum

  Jason's Village Burgundies II (67 Pall Mall): Darkish red, concerningly appears even darker than the Lafarge '05, but I need not have worried, the first sniff assures that this is an entirely different proposition. Lovely wet woodland and red fruit, my notes say we have arrived in Burgundy. It's highly acidic, almost shrill in fact, alongside a spicy freshness that is very appealing.

  Village Burgundy: Mid ruby. Lovely nose. A whiff of smoke and sense of early evolution. Really quiet together. Feels quite approachable for a 16, but strong familial resemblance to the 01. Really very attractive. ****

  Thought I might coravin a glass - weird plastic cork thing put paid to that idea so a bottle it is. On opening - great purity of fruit, savoury strawberry there and some real zip. With a bit of air it puts on weight, broadens out a bit, this is lovely. Pure, savoury, a little lifted perhaps. Clearly a villages wine but an excellent one.
