Domaine Cecile Tremblay
La Croix Blanche Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2011
Tremendous intensity on the nose for a Bourgogne. Concentrated dark and red fruit. Great character and complexity. Dedicated flowers, meat, earth. Decent weight on the palate, fruit falling off a touch with good structure. Balanced. Tannins are drying up a touch. Great character and finish. — 16 days ago

Owner and founder of C. T. Bucklin Wine Advising
Dark fruit and a very firm structure. Should be great in a year or two. Only issue is that it lacked length. A very serious wine — 2 days ago
