Jasper Morris: A difficult vintage, though more successful in this sector than in Meursault. Noticeable gold in the color, though still bright, and a complex nose with mature aromatics, baked pear more than quince, clearly developing, but by no means oxidized—indeed normal progress for a 14-year-old wine from a difficult vintage. Nice, generous mouthful but with a faint touch of mushroom on the palate—maybe a residual trace of the oidium problems. This would be excellent à table now, with not too rich a sauce: poulet aux morilles but without the cream.
