  Compared with the 2000 Hudelot-Noellat Richebourg, this was tighter and more coiled, more tender, which is pretty normal for a 2001. The nose is exemplary - gorgeous.

  nose - gorgeous, wild strawberry, black tea
  mouth - despite a bricked and somewhat faded color, this wine packed a wallop of concentrated racy strawberry fruit without showing any sign of heaviness. slightly burnt brown sugar on the smooth finish. oh so suave. A profound and memorable wine, and quite reminiscent of the '03 we had approx 6 months prior.

  Red Burgundy GC 01 (London): A corked bottle - such a shame, would have been so interesting to assess blind against DRC Riche 01 among others. A recent bottle of the HN was also really wonderful, so gutted.

  Superb nose of lingering earl grey tea, cut herbs, game. Really haunting. On the palate also with lovely stuffing but appearing fully mature this was the split best red Burg of the night with Rousseau Ruchottes 02. A complete wine and one to get stuck into now. This certainly at peak and I would be pulling corks now-2025.

  Dark fruit, meat, smoke, earth and some tea on the nose and palate. Fresh and lean. Very 2001. Quite youthful. Dusty tannin on the finish. Great right now.
