Vintage information 2000:

A super year for whites, concentrated, certainly ripe but good balancing acidity.
The reds are clearly from a 'ripe' vintage but all started quite delicious. Then followed a mawkish phase. Occasional Côte de Nuits wines can even rival the imperious 99s though the average quality is a lower. In the Côte de Beaune, most wines were wonderfully ripe, joyous even on release. Many recent bottles are back to form - even with hints of maturity, but do yourself a favour and wait a little longer for your grand crus...

2000 Joblot, Givry Clos de la ServoisineMar. 2005
Amongst a sea of tiring 2000′s – mainly from the Côte de Beaune – it’s nice have a drop that still shows both energy and interest. Medium, medium-plus young colour. Crushed black cherry nose. Refreshing, succulent black fruit that turns a little creamy on the finish. There’s a little oak and a trace of astringency but it’s not tiring yet. Just in case, I’m going to drink-up the last three of these and enjoy them now.
