    October 30, 2023 - This second bottle was not quite as impressive as a previous taken to a 2011 burg tasting a couple of weeks before.
    Still in its infancy, it was a bit tight and a little muted but began to open up and show a full fruit profile with air.
    Unfortunately it was up against more mature wines that it never had a full chance to stand up against this time
    Hold a few years

    October 28, 2023 - WIMPS Burgundy 27th Oct 23 (La Trompette): youngest of this flight of Volnay and tastes it. Lots of fruit and complexity but more to come I think.

    October 14, 2023 - Nick A's Burgundy Series, 2011 Edition, kids table: A bit more youthful, a bit more vigourous. Something bright yet accessible there - blackcurrant chewit? Do they make cranberry chewits? If they did they would taste like this wine. My mouth is watering thinking about this wine - lovely stuff. I think there are probably two or three reds at the dinner I preferred, but none of them summons themselves to memory as easily as this one. Would love to drink again.

    October 12, 2023 - Nick's 2011 Burgundies (Noizé): Hint of reduction to start, then a nose to die for. Just a wrap me up and bury me in it kind of nose. On the palate opens up with cranberry, black raspberry, olives and bay leaf, and a smoothness and elegance that is simply wonderful. This I think is the best of the flight by a whisker. Somehow it feels more youthful, bright and airy, doing everything it needs to without expending any effort at all. Top notch.

    October 12, 2023 - Nick A's 2011 Burgundy Horizontal (Table 2) (Noizé, London): Another lovely drop, someone on the table correctly suggests blackcurrant chewits on the nose. They're right and some chocolate coated cranberries too. With air a smoky Bakewell character emerges. Palate is long and brooding. After 20 mins in the glass there's a suggestion of coffee and walnut sponge on the palate.
