Pommard 1er Cru Clos des Epeneaux  Slightly Depressed Cork; Bin-Soiled Label |
$175 |

VM 87 (4/2023): The 1998 Pommard Clos des Epeneaux 1er Cru is quite forward and evolved aromatically with peppermint-tinged red fruit, exotic in style and, consequently, missing some typicité. Firm and chewy tannins define the palate. It has lots of backbone and is bold with dense black fruit, but it is missing flair and complexity. A bit ponderous, to be frank. Tasted at the Clos des Epeneaux vertical in London. (Drink between 2023-2030). Neal Martin.
BH 87 (5/2001): Dense black fruit with a very pronounced tannic structure with nice pinot sap but an almost rustic character. Not as tannic as the 99 but it has nowhere near the supporting sève and extract, despite the very low yields. This will take its sweet time coming around and while there is sufficient balance to age gracefully, this is likely to always retain a certain rustic edge. (Drink starting 2008) |

VM 90-92 (4/2000): Bright ruby-red. Pure, stony, highly perfumed aromas of musky small red fruits. Dense and silky, but the wine's Musigny-like minerality gives it terrific juicy cut. Finishes very long, with thoroughly ripe tannins. Strong juice.
BH 80 (5/2001): Extremely funky off odors dominate the nose though otherwise the wine displays good richness, character and structure. As this is the only example I have tried, I do not know if this bottle is indeed representative but if so, the nose makes this a hard wine to like. Drink: Now |

| BH 89 (7/2015): A fully mature nose is displaying full-on secondary aromas with good spice and earth nuances adding additional complexity that the delicious and attractively vibrant middle weight flavors also display. There is good detail and a light touch of minerality to the largely resolved, balanced and lingering finish. For my taste this is drinking now as well as it's going to though with that said, there is no particular rush to drink up. Note that one recent bottle displayed notable oxidation and was quite tired. (Drink starting 2015). |

Chambertin Clos de Beze Grand Cru Domaine Louis Jadot |

VM 92 (4/2001): Deep red. Superripe aromas of redcurrant, cocoa powder, mint and game. Tangy, crystallized red berry flavors offer a penetrating sweetness, but firm acids are currently keeping the wine quite tight. Impeccably balanced grand cru, with powerful extract, powerful structure and terrific grip.
BH 89 (2/2001): Beautifully complex, spicy black fruit aromas introduce remarkably supple, medium weight flavors that display plenty of pinot sap and a wonderfully broad range of flavors. This is very intense and quite long with a clear sense of breed to it. This is very young with excellent potential and while this will probably never be a truly great Jadot Bèze, it should be a lovely wine in 10 years or so. Try from 2008+. |

VM 92 (4/2001): Good bright red-ruby color. Knockout nose combines cherry, raspberry, redcurrant, underbrush, licorice, flowers and earth. Penetrating and quite fine; offers a three-dimensional texture but is not really showing its underlying fat today. Intriguing note of cinnamon in the mouth. Finishes very long and complex, with dusty tannins and compelling sweetness. This should be superb with eight to ten years of bottle aging.
BH 91 (4/2007): Exquisite fruit that, in contrast to certain recent vintages here, positively shouts grand cru caliber fruit. The flavor profile is one of a certain classy, middleweight fighter's grace and athleticism rather than a heavyweight's power. There are plenty of ripe, mouth coating tannins lurking beneath the pinot baby fat. Much like the 99 in that it's not especially big and certainly not highly extracted but it is very persistent on the finish with elegance and class to burn. An unqualified success. Try from 2010+.
WA 82 (10/2000): Crisp and fresh, with citrus, lemon and cassis bush character, and a hint of herbs. But the aromas are full of pretty red berries, and the wine is pure and clean. Medium-bodied. Give it some time. Best from 2001 through 2005. 2,165 cases made. |
