February 1, 2024 - Vineyard adjacent to the legendary Les Amoureuses in Chambolle Musigny.
Medium Ruby Red with 95% pink and 5% orange rim, slightly cloudy. Perfume nose. Medium toasted barrel, flowers, unripe red fruits, redcurrant, raspberry, cherry, strawberry, hawthorn, dried tobacco leaves, hint of soil, macadamia nuts, cedar and spices. Medium bodied, medium-high to high acidity, medium-high tannin, medium structure, medium alcohol and very long finish. Complex and elegant. Fresh and seductive. Breathed for 1 hour. Some tartaric acid residue at the end.
Wine was still youth and not much tertiary aromas yet, as evidenced by the 95% pink rim even after 13 years. This bottle was a connoisseur's wine, and not a crowd pleaser due to the higher acidity and freshness. 93+ pts.
December 1, 2019 - Slightly more acidic than I remember, still.excellent
February 22, 2019 - Excellent, classic burgundy. Groffier definitely one of my fave burgundies
January 5, 2019 - 樱桃干、覆盆子、香草和少许湿地的气息，虽不以层次见长但浓郁奔放，十分诱人。入口均衡，宽广、圆润，精准而纯净，甜美的程度恰到好处。虽然年轻，但并无生涩粗糙之处。
December 16, 2018 - youthful and delicious
5 more years of sleep time recommended
October 14, 2017 - Unlike the 2014 and 2015 which I liked a lot, this one showed quite acidic and green. I guess the sub par 2011 vintage cannot fully hide.
November 8, 2015 - Knightsbridge Annual Holiday Burgundy/Champagne Tasting and Sale (Northbrook, IL): Tasting, brief note. Leaner styled red fruit with moderate structure. Best to drink on the younger side. Like in most vintages I prefer this over the Sentiers.
November 17, 2014 - At a retailer tasting. A smooth wine wine a soft feminine style. Notes of green pepper and berries. Approachable tannins. 92 points.
November 9, 2014 - Knightsbridge Annual Holiday Burgundy/Champagne Tasting and Sale (Northbrook, IL): Tasting, brief note. Lighter styled red fruit with subtle spice and some pronounced structure. I don't think was quite as enjoyable today as I recall from the few other times I've had this wine.
April 6, 2014 - Knightsbridge 2011 Burgundy Tasting and Sale (Northbrook, IL): Tasting, brief note. Also slightly reductive, showing good red fruit and spice, forward and enjoyable, even if slightly simple. Still, good today.
