Brun l'Ancien '09-'11

[Saina Nieminen]

'09: fat, more so than I remembered, not so easy to drink in quantity.

'10: lovely, crisp and bright, moreish: I can finish a bottle on my own.

'11: some fat, not as bad as the '09 since it has better acidity, moderately moreish: easy to share a bottle and still feel a bit thirsty, not quite so moreish that I could drink a whole bottle on my own.

'09 was under plastic stopper so I wouldn't age; '10-'11 both seem painfully young and show better the next day. I need to drink more of these but I think I really love these wines, even in the moderately fat years.

What's with all these Moors invading Bojo?

Bojo? I think I'll have to open a bottle of Moose or maybe Corton Charlie to get through that one.

Lebanese or French species of Alces alces?

Had a bottle of the 10 over two nights last week.
Very delish.
Unsure of any moreishness.

If you managed to not drink everything in one evening, then you didn't find it moreish. For some reason, the 2010s evaporate too quickly for me to find out what they are like the next day.
