Tasting notes
Bright medium red. Musky aromas of black raspberry and mocha. Sweet, ripe, concentrated and deep; sappier than the last couple of premier crus. In a succulent style and not at all green. Rich for an '11. I tasted this wine and the preceding samples from 375 ml. bottles, so it's entirely possible that the 750s are fresher.

Good deep, bright red. Musky aromas of red fruits and earth. A sappy, juicy fruit bomb on the palate, offering a chewy texture and good weight if not quite the refinement or floral character of the Cras. Firmly built but balanced and accessible from the start.
