the 1999 is somewhat one-dimensional and not likely to improve considerably from here

Here the nose plays right on the edge of exoticism with its notes of fresh white and yellow orchard fruit

but I like the overall sense of harmony and balance

Curvy and generous

and this is a wine with more fruitLa Poza behaves better in cooler years like 2013

Serafin Pere et Fils, Gevrey Chambertin Vv other_regions_italy the 1999 is somewhat one-dimensional(55+ year old vines, a portion of which abut Griotte). A touch of wood sets off complex, ripe, somber and animale suffused aromas of dark pinot fruit that precedes rich, full and powerful medium bodied flavors brimming with dry extract, all wrapped in a powerful and impressively persistent finish. Outstanding quality for its level and recommended. 90 2014+
