Score 88/100 · Drink 2001-2004, Pierre Rovani, Feb 1998

Displaying good richness and mineral aromas, the Chassagne-Montrachet Clos St. Jean possesses a medium-bodied, masculine, chewy, and focused personality with earthy, toasty, and stone-like flavors. This wine's structure and mouth-coating fruit lead me to believe that it may ultimately be even better than my score suggests. It should be consumed between 2001 and 2004.

Score 88+/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

Less fruity but more complex aromas of flowers, herbs, grass and stones. More minerals and less flesh in the mouth; conveys a stronger impression of acidity and a firmer structure. The wine's minerality keeps the finish quite dry. A '96 that will need extended aging.
