Tasting, brief note. Lots of dark fruit with dark chocolate hints. Easy to enjoy, somewhat simple, slightly rustic.

Tasting, brief note. Great strawberry nose. Same flavors with some red cherry, a bit reticent for now but lots of concentration, followed by a very elegant finish.

Tasting, brief note. Very challenging to assess now with lots of dark fruit and an overall brooding character that displays more structure than fruit...but at the same time, lots of density. Not in perfect balance now, but I sense lots of potential a decade+ away.

Tasting, brief note. Moderate fruit with a slightly rustic edge and firm tannins that for right now dominate the palate. Try again in 5 years.

Tasting, brief note. Very forward and accessible with fresh red fruit aromas and spice hints. Very pleasant and enjoyable if not prototypically Pommard.

Tasting, brief note. Very ripe and fleshy, but also slightly reductive, making it tough to enjoy today.

Tasting, brief note. Beautiful floral nose, very charming even if it seemed more Vosne and Leroy than NSG, even for this northern vineyard in NSG. Light and simpler flavors, shallow from middle to finish.

Tasting, brief note. Moderate smoked cherry, tart cherry. Slightly tough tannins, not presenting a classic Vosne character to me today. Short finish.

Tasting, brief note. Earthy, meaty aromatic start with slightly reticent red fruit. Subdued flavors n palate with impressive energy and minerality, this will need at least 5 more years, probably at least 10, given what I understand about good Malconsorts' time requirements.

Tasting, brief note. Shows very black, very ripe and fleshy fruit on both nose and palate. Impressive concentration for villages level, but needs some time to soften.

Tasting, brief note. Earthy, funky in a way that was either somewhat corked or showing way too much Brett.

Tasting, brief note. All red fruit with moderate intensity. Good acidity and structural support. Moderate power and finish.

Tasting, brief note. forward and lighter styled Grand Cru that didn't really show much of 1999's quality potential. Somewhat elegant but simple and short, particularly when compared with the other two Mongeard-Mugneret Grand Crus also tried today.

Tasting, brief note. Good strawberry aromas with a bit of obtrusive new oak. Elegant and subtle flavors, but good combination of fresh fruit and spice, all nicely textured and elegant. Best on the young side for GC.

Tasting, brief note. Bright strawberry aromas and flavors with some red cherry on palate as well. Well integrated and soft already now, this should be better in a few more years but doesn't quite have the concentration for long-term cellar worthiness.
