  Nick's 2008 Burgundies (Noizé, London): Darker and denser than the Fixin in its flight, with darker fruits like black cherry. This is vibrant, youthful, years ahead of it I reckon. In fact I would even describe it as a little tight and firm, though it does begin to let go, to declench, after a while. It is spicy with a tannic bite on the finish, and within the whole package one senses some serious wine-making. Excellent, and with a bright future you would have to say.

  Nick A's 2008 Burgundy Horizontal (Table B) (Noizé, London): Bluer fruited than the Joliet, there is some forest floor leafiness and underbrush. Palate takes a while to open up but when it does there's a very well balanced wine with refreshing acidity and some onion skin savouriness. Good effort.

  Ok, but way to acidic. Half the bottle has gone into the cooking pot.

  Sadly, I think this particular cuvée from a good producer has a problem. Bought on release and well stored, bottles have had varying levels of volatility and 'band aid' spoilage. C'est la vie
