Glassful

Louis Jadot

Domaine des Héritiers Corton Pougets Grand Cru Pinot Noir

This is great. Still the best-ever Pougets I've ever had from Jadot, and just about as good as Corton gets. Some of the sticky grip this showed last year is starting to recede and this is becoming more backwards and solid, but we're still in the window where this has plenty to show off even though I suspect it'll shut down hard pretty soon and quite possibly need all of two decades to reemerge. (If that sounds overly long, taste the '99 right now and get back to me.) So what is it, exactly, that's going on here even though most of the primary fruit is gone? What we have is an intense rock quarry of a Corton, firmly on the mineral rather than animal side of Corton, that not only smells and tastes like a glassful of pulverized rock but has the assertive structure and solidity to go with it. — 10 years ago

Neudorf

Moutere Chardonnay 2006

Thick, leesy, clotted cream nose when opened; repaid a brief decant to reveal lemon curd, lime pith and quince, with buttery notes. Ripe and bold, it shows good fruit, complexity & length. A satisfying glassful but for me too rich to be moreish. — 10 years ago
