France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Saint-Aubin 1er Cru
Light, straw yellow. Pleasant, medium intense burgundy nose with flint, citrus and minerals. Soft and creamy on the palate, medium fruit with citrus tones and well balanced acid. Ends a bit short, otherwise a very good st. aubin (3 x 89 p)
Straw yellow. Tropical fruit, vanilla and canned pineapple on the nose. Fruity, but far too much oak for me - like chewing wood, and with an unpleasant, metallic aftertaste. Scored between 82 and 88 p within the group
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru
Clear, bright ruby with brownish edge. Red berries and a hint of barnyard on the nose. Fruity, surprisingly fresh, good acid. Good structured, well balanced. Pleasant, fruity aftertaste. Seems younger than it's nine years
Dense, dark purple. Young appearance, high viscosity. Synthetic chemical aromas with cherry liquor and gauze. Light and watery on the palate, with fruit, acid and tannins gone. Was probably far better some years ago
