First Wednesday Wine Club (Napoli in Bocca, Haberfield): Served blind. Farmyard stink, savoury, dark hued fruit, a little whole bunch with a sweet fruit core, plenty of tannic grip, quite chewy, touch of farmyard on the palate as well with that dark hued fruit. I guessed Pommard 2010 1er Cru.

Big and ripe, smoky and meaty. Tasted alongside a 2011 Nuits-St-Georges and a 2013 Volnay, and the difference in vintages was quite apparent. Really delicious, and certainly scratches the itch for a bigger, plumper Burg, even though that is not the style I generally prefer.

United Cellars Grand Burgundy Tasting 2013 (Royal Automobile Club, Macquarie Street, Sydney): Cream, vanilla, caramel over herby notes. Slight red berry and cedar. In the mouth the wine is oaky, woody/cedar, spice, muted fruit, quite warm. Firm grippy tannin. At this juncture the wood dominates the fruit for me.
