2000 vintage. Gorgeous, Quite Rich, medium to full bodied, lots of fresh lemon, citrus rind, honeysuckle, honey, "pain d'épices" and floral notes in every sniff and sip.

So quiet and understated at first. 4 hours later I see the wine was just a wallflower at the start . A glory to taste, walking on the edge. Richness in the middle surrounded from the front and back by a piercing clarity. — 10 years ago

A bit tired with noticeable VA. First few whiffs still showed its former glory though. Fully mature with tertiary notes dominating. Lovely. — 10 years ago
Let 'er breathe and glory awaits! Lush berries and licorice notes dominate a balanced, elegantly oaked wine.
Also kudos on the detailed data on the label of the what, how and where of this Red Mountain wine. — 10 years ago
Domaine Henri Jayer Echézeaux 1988: Lush and silky, bursting with sweet black fruit and a commanding, complex perfume of Asian spice, musk, and minerals. Wines from the late, legendary Henri Jayer represent a singularly heightened benchmark for Burgundy and Pinot Noir. They are Led Zeppelin conquering the Garden in 1973 or Kurt Cobain rasping behind the stargazer lilies: pure glory, glorious purity. beetroot and menthol on the nose, velvet on the tongue, and exhilaration in the heart. Wines like these make even the most law-abiding drinker contemplate a life on the lam. — 10 years ago

Late night. Eating jambon royal and sheep's milk chevre. 2010 gigondas in all its glory. This wine is phenomenal. Earthy and floral. Almost like a great garden. But also has dense delicious fruit. Just can't say enough good things. Sent me to bed with a smile. — 10 years ago

I'm upping my rating on this. Wine needed air to show its full glory. Today, it's blowing dark fruit, tree bark, big cinnamon and dark spice - yet, it remains fresh and vibrant. It still reminds me of really good Cru Beaujolais but the Mourvèdre character is more present. Yum! — 9 years ago
