   Yes, tasted quite a range about two weeks ago.

   There are some super red Burgundy's in 2012, including their Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Les Saint Georges which could be legendary. I am writing up the tastings notes, but here are my scores if you put any faith in such. The big news to me is how good their 2012 Corton “Clos des Cortons Faiveley” Grand Cru is in this vintage. Their winemaker, Jerome Flous, has found the balance betwen power and elegance at last for this terroir and this could be a historic turning point in how Corton's are perceived over the next decade, as this is a superb wine.

   As you may already know, quantities are tiny in 2012, so fortune will favour the brave (if you have the readies.)

   I hope this helps.
