  Light ruby with garnet hues. Pronounced intensity on the nose. Opened up beautifully over the course of several hours. Cherries, funk, earth, sweet spices and ash. Medium acidity and tannins. Good finish.

  Red fruit, very little of the typical 2011 herbal notes, but a good package of tannins. Very good density and length. Drinking well.

  Here is red fruit, pure and clean. The wine is well together, not having the 2011 herbal and green notes. Middle density and good length.

  Red fruit (cranberries and cherries), plums, soil and salinity. The fruit is pure, which is not all the time the case with 2011 Burgs. Middle density with a good length. Drinking well, but still young. An additional snooze of 2 years in the cellar will be beneficial.

  2011 Les Saint Georges tasting: Cherry colour with touches of ocre at the rim. A bouquet of strawberries, raspberries, red cherries and orange rind. On palate, fully ripe, with fruit sweetness on entry. Pure red cherry fruit, backed by persistent, firm minerality. Not a hint of green. Below medium weight but with good balance and sufficient concentration and structure. Looking back, I preferred this wine to Gouges Les Saint Georges.
