  I've been saving this last bottle of 2011 VV to have alongside the Vermont. This is fully resolved and lush on the palate. Lots of dark berry and plum fruit with some spice box and an earthy green snap. The tannins are fully resolved and there is a bit of underbrush but it is mostly velvety fruit at this point. Delicious. Drink them if you've got them.

  Meaty, intense, with structure. I like my Morgon a bit more seductive, but this is good and will improve.

  Ce 2011 est déjà bien expressif, il a une pureté saisissante, c'est frais et minéral avec ses arômes de cerise, racé comme un vin de la Côte d'or, aérien et séduisant. 91 pts

  Bouquet tout simple mais d'un charme entêtant. Bouche en deux temps: d'abord tendre et soyeuse, puis structurelle, même légèrement rustique, avec acidité bien présente. J'aurais aimé un peu plus d'harmonie en fin de bouche, mais je ne suis pas certain qu'elle viendra avec le temps. À merveilleusement bien accompagné les pâtés et terrines. 89-90
