  Young, a little volatile, but beautiful. Needs 10 years. 93+

  Enjoyably lifted, complex and rustic, but not the clarity I prefer.

  My 2nd time having this. Checking back my notes, it seemed like I had much fonder memories of the previous bottle. Nonetheless, this one was still very good, with similar characteristics with slightly less wow, perhaps...

  RE & Truchot dinner at Jade Palace.
  
  This was quite out of the world - sweet, floral, complex (some caramel) nose. Palate was great - fruits pretty much alive, with depth. Quite a long finish. Very good!

  Engel and Truchot dinner at Jade Palace. Flight 2 with the pair of Engel GEs, 1998 and 2001. This was simply outstanding, and lived up to the hype before this dinner. Again, a perfect ruby red in colour. The aromatics were insane. Like the Truchot MSD 99 drank moments before, this was simply fireworks on the nose. Such a perfect Pinot bouquet of white pepper, spice, cigarbox, new leather, incense, sandwalwood, mikan, fresh strawberries, caramelized apples, along with a distinctive Gevrey character. The palate was marvelous, living up to expectations as well. There was again the sweetness, the perfect tannins, the good acidity with a mixture of fresh and slightly matured red fruit. With extended time, this had beef broth notes, black truffle, roasted tomatoes, truffle and white chocolate. Definitely has a long way to go, and this is another Truchot masterpiece. Brilliant!
