Lots of mature and ripe apple with some apple pie notes. Excellent concentration for its level. Still drinking very well for its age and the '01 vintage.

Fully mature with candied apple and sweet spice. Fleshy and rich, this held up nicely over the several hours it was open. A recent purchase as part of a mixed auction lot that included several vintages of Ente's Seve du Clos that I really wanted. So my expectation for these bottles was very low, and I was pleasantly surprised.

Aromas of lemon oil, minerals, hazelnuts and some toasty oak notes. Very Meursault with a roundness in the mouth, but with good acidity. Citrus and some yellow stone fruit on the palate with good concentration for a villages wine. Good length and a wonderful showing for a Meursault village. At a great place right now and should be able to hold for a few more years if it is in the right conditions. This and some other Entes we tasted were stored impeccably, yet 2 bottles of the 2000 Meursault were premoxed.

Actually enjoyed this quite a bit. It seemed best to me on the first day, when the minerality was more cut and stood out. Day two it seemed a bit more fat and out of place. A bit of wood--not too much imo. Bright acid, tangerine, and hazelnut.

Medium yellow-gold color. Aromas of lemon, butterscotch, and pineapple. On the palate, this shows lemon, butterscotch, hazelnut oil, and pineapple. The iodine and mineral notes from the last bottle are not present on this showing and this is seemingly more advanced. Some signs of seepage under the capsule may be the culprit. In any event, a fine enough sip. Drink.
