November 16, 2022 - Nine red 2006 Burgs (Noize): Slightly subdued on the nose, and slightly austere overall, though the sense of balance and completeness was unmissable. Ample delightful red fruit, a bit grippy, plenty there but another few years required before it fully reveals itself.

November 16, 2022 - 2006 Burgundy with a few additions (Noizé, London): Even darker fruit than the Gouges here. Almost Nebbiolo like liquorice character; Faiveleys of this era are famously backward. Lots of swirling coaxes a bit more from the glass, definitely a very serious wine here. Will be better in 10(20?) years but still enjoyable tonight notwithstanding its "youth".

July 27, 2022 - @ Manhatta NYC. Big whiffs of barnyard took a few minutes to blow off. Lots of bright fruits initially but faded fairly quickly. Dusty, fine and integrated tannins. Dry finish. This is on the decline or never got to a sweet spot in the first place.

March 6, 2020 - Fragrant nose of cherries, medium to lighter body with strong tannins, and a lengthy finish. Very tasty but as said previously, the fruit fails to match the tannin.

November 16, 2019 - Out of the bottle closed and tannic. After an hour of decanting started to open up a bit. Good tannic and acid balance though fruit and nose are somewhat absent... eventually a hint of blueberry appears, with a bit of vanilla, while enjoying the last of this somewhat retiring bottle.
