  (Boillot Jean-Marc Pommard Jarollières) Medium, medium-plus ruby-red colour. The fruit on the nose is just as sweet as the previous Rossignol, but it’s darker coloured at the edge with a red core, faint coffee too - very fetching! Less ripe palate than the Rossignol - almost mouth-puckering by comparison with a higher level of tannin. This is, however, very complex in the mid-palate and longer too.

  (Boillot Jean-Marc Pommard Jarollières) Medium ruby-red. Ripe, slightly blurred red fruit, a little diffuse but okay. Another 2000 where the acid is a bit of a roller-coaster, but finishes quite well. Good sweetness and concentration with just a little bitterness on the tannin. It might not sound like it, but this is a lot better than the last outing.

  (Boillot Jean-Marc Pommard Jarollières) Medium colour with little fading. The nose starts not auspiciously with sweet, alcoholic red fruit and oak but no cohesion, perhaps it's the oak that's the main fault, because as it fades the overall effect improves considerably. The palate is cool but also not so well joined-up. There's a little tannin that sticks out as slightly bitter and mouthwatering acidity that also could also be better balanced. The fruit doesn't do enough to hold this wine together. This was a nice, succulent wine last year but doesn't come close to that definition this. I'm hoping it's only a phase as I've 4 more in the cellar.

  (Boillot Jean-Marc Pommard Jarollières) Medium-plus cherry already starting with a hint of amber at the rim. The nose starts with toasty oak and plenty of raspberry fruit, the oak soon blows off. Another luciously juicy palate with excellent acidity. The fruit is medium concentrated but very pure, again red in profile. Drying tannins on the finish tell the story of a very young but currently very tasty wine.
