This week Ray has gone to Pakistan to climb really big mountains so we had a glass of wine with lunch on Friday to farewell him. The Domaine Robert Chevillon Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru 'Les Prulieres' 2008 turned out to be an appropriate benchmark. Light in colour and density, the wine was very floral and fruit driven, with lovely soft, chalky tannins. Considering the similar seasons of Burgundy in 2008 and Geelong in 2011 it is good to see a cold, wet year is still able to produce clean and complex Pinot Noir.
