    This wine was a garnet hue in the glass, a lovely floral nose, dark and earthy fruits and a long finish. Drink this with some lamb and it elevates it to a 90 or 91.

    May 6, 2019 - New Zealand micro trip; 5/6/2019-5/9/2019 (North Island, New Zealand): Red berry; strawberry over red currant with bramble and coffee underpin, a little cedar and Asian five spice joins on the nose. In the mouth it's very slightly sour and has medicinal herbs muted wet, wild brambles and strawberries. The tannins creep up and encroach a little on the finish closing down the mid palate and there is a tiny stalky note. Complex but hmm for me.

    October 30, 2018 - Exceptionally clear in the glass. Relatively dark for pinot with thick legs but showing some aging already as it was slightly garnet at the edges. There are strawberries, spice and lots of white pepper. Initially a little unbalanced out the bottle, but transforms with 15 minutes so it then becomes settled and balanced. Has the classic gevrey "grip" and at the start of its drinking window. Drink now to 2030+

    November 12, 2016 - Medium ruby with tobacco and red cherries and fresh herbs on the nose. Medium weight, red fruit with cumin and anise notes. Good acid and a hit of orange pith and alcohol on the finish. Could probably stand a little more cellaring.

    May 22, 2016 - Luftet i 2 timer i karaffel før konsum. Kjølig aroma med preg av kirsebær, bringebær, løv, tranebær, ett hint av salvie, fersk kaffe. I munnen er den medium+ fyldig og med en kjølig munnfølelse der det var en snev av sødme i frukten. Fin frukt og god balanse. Drikker fint nå og vil ikke vinne på lagring. Fungerte utmerket til grillet landkylling.

    April 9, 2016 - Rød med begynnende oransje kant. Aroma med preg av krydder, kirsebær, bringebær, jord, kaffe. I munnen er den relativt kraftig og litt ulik min forrige flaske. Bra lengde! Fungerte godt til helgrillet kylling med litt eksotiske krydder. Ble drukket mot Copain Kiser "Combe de Gres" 2010 og det gjorde at årgangens svakheter kom tydligere frem. Normalt sett så foretrekker jeg Burgund foran US, men denne gangen ble det motsatt. Begge vinene kostet ca kr 500,- hvilket kan være urettferdig med tanke på at Burgund generelt er dyrere. I tillegg er 2010 i US en bedre årgang enn 2011 i burgund..
