This was low yield after frost, but has plenty of concentration, if a little strict. As it is coaxed out of the glass, beautiful crushed roses and tobacco leaf aromatics come through, along with campfire and smoked earth, chamomile bud, incense, saffron, cranberry compote. Aged between 228l Burgundy barrels and old-fashioned resin vats. Gerard Jaboulet at the time was owner and his brother Jacques winemaker. I have had better bottles of this particular vintage, but that's the gamble of opening mature wine!Jane Anson27th August 2025

Dark red. Port-like aromas of chocolate, prune, and earth, plus a whiff of V8. Then sweet and gamey in the mouth, with very good density and surprisingly firm acids. Finishes with suave tannins and subtle, lingering, spicy flavor. Seemed to grow fresher in the glass and benefit from aeration.Stephen Tanzer1st November 1998
