Araujo and Burgs

Dinner at I Hate the Handover Club.

2012 Lucien Le Moine Corton Blanc - soooo toasty, huge nose, good minerality and flint. Nice acidity, not oxidized as feared.

2010 Arnoux-Lachaux Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots - still too young, with lots of forest, pretty stemmy, a little too lean and tannic on the palate. Some black fruits here, but not really open or opulent.

2002 Araujo Cabernet Sauvignon Eisele Vineyard - decanted for 2 hours, and still rather closed. Tannins were pretty strong. Concentrated with woodsy notes.
