Deutz, Coche and Pegau

We're off to Marco Island Florida for the duration of winter and had dinner with friends at our favorite restaurant in Columbus before leaving.

2000 Dom Perignon-as a gift from the owner we each had a glass of the 2000 Dom Perignon. Bright lively lemon and orange peel with a touch of buttered toast of the finish. "A-"

with various starters including sweetbreads, wild mushroom tortes and salmon mousse

1996 Deutz Rose-Sweet fruit on the front end. Strawberry and red raspberry. Nice rose but I've had better. "B"

With Dover Sole with Lobster sauce:

2004 Coche Dury Meursault Caillerets-This wine needs a few more years. Big toasty oak flavors up front with tart lemon peel and buttered apple notes. WOnderful but will get better. "A"

with Onglet of Beef

2001 Pegau CdP Reservee-This wine needs more time also. Big blockbuster fruit with cassis, black cherry, anise and red raspberry liquor flavors. Big and concentrated yet smooth plush tannins. "A"

Thanks for the note about this wine, Bill. I recently traded two bottles of the '00 Reservee for two bottles of the '01, so I now have 4 bottles of this (I originally ordered 3 bottles from a local retailer, but they delivered 3 of the '00, so I've been scrambling to redress that problem since). From the stretch of years '98-'01, I think that '01 will be my stylistic favorite, followed by '99, then '98 and '00. I also think that '01 will take the longest time to reach maturity, though.

No doubt that the 01 will take longest. I had the '98 recently and it was drinking beautifully if not still a tad youthful and fruity.
