I am a "free agent" of wine. I am always willing to try new things, both in wine and in life.

2001 Domaine Ponsot Clos de la Roche Vieilles Vignes

Compared to the ‘16 served alongside this was obviously more complex and had a nice secondary nose of game, but was actually the weaker wine. Not as much depth on the palate as I would have hoped, a lot of ‘01s are getting tired now. Some soft fruit left on the palate. Medium finish. Still a good drink 92-93 and better drink up…

This was obviously very young but drinkable. Lot’s of power on the nose and palate. Dark and brooding black fruit, nice balance. No secondary notes yet. Drink now with air for the primary phase but I would hold. 94 for now.

Served en magnum. Like the ‘03 Morey 1er also served en magnum this was also dark and brooding but did have Gevrey underbrush character and a fairly open nose. Slightly burnt back end of the finish. 92
