2004 Mommessin Clos de Tart

A wide, creamy and interesting nose. Versus ‘La Forge’ this is much silkier and has so many more facets – more intense and certainly more complex. Lovely, lingering finish. My style of wine – super.

Deep colour. Thick and heavy nose of coffee edged sweet plum and herbs. Tasting provides an unctuous, and sweet mix that avoids being ponderous because there’s just so much of everything. Elegant it isn’t, but this is so jam-packed with material that you have to be impressed. Give it 15 years in the cellar and see what develops.

Medium-plus colour. The nose shouts deep, black-edged, creamy cherry and a little coffee – not so wide. The soft entry delivers you sweet, interesting red-shaded fruit The tannins are very well covered by the concentrated fruit – builds well from the mid-palate into a super, mouth-watering finish – it just melts away. Today it’s certainly a hedonist’s wine rather than an intellectual wine – but if, with time, it builds some complexity it will be a very fine bottle.
