Score 84-86/100 · Drink 2012-2020, Robert Parker, Apr 2012

The 2011 Fugue de Nenin is a straightforward, one-dimensional, but attractive, elegant effort offering berry fruit and leafy herb characteristics as well as an easy-going finish. This blend of 88% Merlot and 12% Cabernet Franc should drink well for 6-8 years.

Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2016-2025, Julia Harding MW, jancisrobinson.com, Apr 2012

Driest vintage of the decade and nearly the warmest of the decade (overall), says Jean-Hubert Delon. 88% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc. (More Cabernet Franc has been planted so they will soon have 25% Cabernet Franc in the blend.) 15% new barrels. Bright cherry red. Fragrant, graphite and red fruit. Zippy and fresh. Less alcohol and more acid than in 2010. Has that lovely Cabernet Franc freshness that stands out in 2011. Slight and attractive grain to the tannins. (JH)
