The raspberry fruit is overwhelmed by coffee and other roasted berries, along with a hint of VA. Drinkable nonetheless with a little Vosne spice showing up.

Big, rich, and ripe. Currant, tobacco, cedar, and graphite dominate the nose. The wine is not an example of delicacy or finesse. Some roasted notes detract from the finish, but otherwise a decent enjoyable wine.

Popped and poured. Nice nose with lifted, airy scents of cherry and dark berry, underbrush, and Asian spice. The texture is velvety, with a clay note that I identify with Morey St. Denis. It doesn't have the green streak of most of the 2011's that I've tasted, so I'd guess '08 for the vintage if served blind. It could pass for an older wine, as it opens the more it's poured.
This wine should be a good value for 1er Nuits Burg in the auction market.
