Over the hill but still delicious. — 4 years ago
Jacques is the farmer of the two brothers and his wine shows restraint if such can be said of such rich layered and complex wine. At 12 years young this is showing it’s Grand Cru pedigree. Sublime in this case is hardly an exaggeration. — 6 years ago
Light, acidic, has a kick in the teeth, but drinkable, good balance at the palate with sour cherry notes. — 8 years ago

Des l'ouverture à la couleur et au nez on sent que le vin est à son apogée. C'est très bien construit au niveau des arômes. Agrumes, on pressent un équilibre de gras avec beaucoup de tension pure. En bouche c'est excellent, équilibre entre mineralite et gourmandise. Toujours ravi avec Carillon (Jacques) de surcroît en 2008. — 5 years ago
Man tackar. Superkomplex doft. Aromatisk men citrus och snäckskal. Bra potent syra som fyller gommen. Nektar, bakad apelsin, knäckig, oljig med mineralisk knaster. — 7 years ago
Garnet in color. Intense aroma of red licorice, cranberry, dried cherries, and smoke. Incredible earthy palate that tastes of campfire and unsweetened chocolate. It finishes with very mild tannins and long lingering flavor of earth , like autumn leaves on a forest floor. — 4 years ago
This is actually Jacques Carillon Chassagne-Montrachet 2015. The classic Carillon rich and supple nose is there along with the racy acidity and creamy lemon. There is a small cloying hint of honeysuckle, may be a reason this was downgraded from 1er Cru (or blended cross-vineyard). Still quite drinkable and a good price. — 7 years ago
