  Ye Paulee (Hao Noodle): Made by HJ. Fourth Meo Brûlées this week, surprised me with the amount of acidity, quite textured and spicy but so young still. Perhaps should hold off with my other bottles. 93+

  This was made by Henri Jayer which is confirmed by Jean Nicolas Meo when I asked him. The nose is really beautiful, sexy with lots of mixture of red/black fruit, spicy, earth and some mushroom with gentle oak underneath, pretty profound, and good depth, in the pallate, different from 89,90,91,93 and other vingtage from Meo, those are more strong ,more power, 88 is very a bit light but have very good dense, silky tannin, and very good fruit, spicy, mineral, some baken, earth to surrond the acid as backbone, very smooth, still have long life left. very very good

  I reckon Henry might have had a hand in the making of this. It had a touch of meat upon opening but blossomed into a thing of absolute beauty in the glass. There were ethereal notes of violets, red currants, pomegranate, black cherries and anise. In the mouth it was powerful and direct yet silky and sensual. It built through the palate and fanned out on the finish. The vintage’s structure is still there giving the wine real posture.

  Burgundy Dinner with Jeanne Marie de Champs (Sepia - Chicago IL): Big and robust aromas, but not particularly pristine. Earthy and black aromas with tannins that still stand out. Not perfectly in balance. I believe this was the first vintage that Henri Jayer didn't make and I think it showed.

  I suspect this was made by the late, great Henri Jayer and it was incredible. There was a little meat and musk to the aroma. The palate was spun from the most silky, vinous thread and there was a big burst of ripe raspberries once the wine breathed. It still has plenty of structure and was quite direct and linear on the finish, leaving a wonderfully spicy calling card once swallowed.
