  February 12, 2022 - 2021 Martinborough weekend with Kai, Marion and friends (Wairarapa, NZ): Served double blind with the Fürst. Deeper colour. More black fruited scents than the Spätburgunder, also spices, earth and dark flowers. A dark fruited mouth, crystalline, with fresh but – to me – well balanced acidity. Someone suggested a “hot finish”, but I did not agree. For me, the ingredients – acids, fruit and oak - in good proportion but not hugely complex or nuanced. Still, on the reveal, I was pleased to see an Arlaud showing well. No pyrazines or green notes seen or suggested with the 2011 Charmes.

  May 8, 2019 - Strawberries, anise, leather, forest floor and something undefinable on the quite expressive nose, powerful yet elegant. A touch of green beans a la 2004.

  December 20, 2015 - The 2011 was drunk together with 2012. Both recieved 30h in the decanter. 2011 was disappointing. Not much more complexity than a simple BR. Don't expect this to develop much further.

  January 17, 2013 - North Berkeley Wines New Release Tasting (Presidio Golf Course, San Francisco): Lighter color than the last Morey. Lighter weight too, but finer, sweeter red fruit with a good vein of earth running through the wine. Quite elegant and it certainly tastes great now.
