1998 Burgundy horizontal (Noize): Served blind. The sturdiness took us to Gevrey or Nuits. Wafts of savoury smoke on the nose. Dark, woody and grippy, but also very clean, with a lift that made it easy to drink at the end of the meal - nicely mature.

1998 Burgundy (Noizé, London): Blind. Meaty, Nuits character. 1er Cru level. Turns out to be southern Nuits, and Gouges. A sense of Maume about it though, slightly wild / animale. Expressive. Lots to like here in a sturdier frame. ****

Served blind. Black fruit and quite leathery. Nice supple palate as it opened up with air. Pretty civilised for a Gouges!

I wrote "Good. Thin. Not memorable." Had tasted many wines at this point so your mileage may vary.
