Vinous (96)Another strong showing for the 2002 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru from the late Philippe Engel. The nose is ethereal, offering raspberry and crushed strawberry scents, and the palate is extraordinary in terms of focus. The finish oddly reminds me of Engel's Grands Echézeaux. Magnificent. Tasted at Noizé restaurant in London. |

Burghound (92)I slightly misjudged this as it has really harmonized in the last 6 months with its explosive and spicy black fruit nose and robust yet stylish and classy full-bodied flavors of considerable depth, weight, power and length. A really lovely effort of impressive ripeness and density for the vintage and one that should amply reward patience over the medium term. In short, this is most impressive. |

Wine Advocate (90)Readers will already be aware that I absolutely adore the late Philippe Engel's wines, but the 1998 Grands Echézeaux was perhaps not his finest. The nose has a little brettanomyces and is too diffuse for my liking, with touches of Italian cured meats infusing the mulberry fruit. The palate is disjointed at first, though it does coalesce in the glass and delivers a lovely herbaceous, tertiary note towards the finish without ever troubling the stellar heights of say, the 1999 or 2002. I would drink bottles over the next 3-5 years. |

Burghound (90-93)The quality here is far superior to the preceding wines as this is aromatically rich, intense and utterly classy with robust yet remarkably fine and refined flavors that combine power, weight and depth in a ripe but elegant package. Lovely stuff and this is really most impressive. |
