Reviews & Scores
This is more mature than the 2001 with a beautifully layered nose of yeast, lemon rind, brioche, dried flowers and spice hints. There is excellent volume and superb intensity to the firm mousse that despite the firmness exhibits a very fine bead. This is exceptionally impressive in the mouth with the same striking complexity of the nose coupled with positively gorgeous length. A knockout that could be drunk now with pleasure or held for a few more years first; personally I would opt for the latter but either way, this is a classic Clos des Goisses. - BH

The 2000 vintage of Clos des Goisses is now entering its plateau of peak maturity and is wide open on both the nose and palate, but I have a feeling that a few more years in the cellar will allow even a bit more refinement to its palate impression, which still shows a bit of youthful angularity today. The bouquet is superb, jumping from the glass in a quite mineral blend of peach, apple, smoky overtones, complex minerality, a touch of lavender and the first signs of the macadamia nuttiness to come with more aging. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, crisp and nicely open on the attack, with a fine core and soil signature, bright acids, elegant mousse and fine length and grip on the still gently youthful backend. I have no problem drinking this wine today, but it may be even a shade better with a bit more patience. This bottle was disgorged in May of 2015, so this is a later disgorgement than the original release. - JG

Although this has the ripeness of the 1990, it is much tighter and more precise and the aroma more spicy - showing those ginger notes that have appeared on several vintages as well as a greener celery-seed character. Then it fans out more broadly on the finish without losing that bright citrus core. With time the aroma becomes more woody/cedary and that ginger note deepens. Intense and mouthwatering aftertaste. - JR

Philipponnat's 2000 Clos des Goisses is an excellent choice for drinking today, as there is less upside than in some of the other surrounding vintages. This is a distinctly savory Goisses with more than enough phenolic weight and richness to support many years of cellaring, although I do not expect to see a lot of improvement from here. Hints of sage and mint add nuance on the close. The 2000 is a beautiful and highly expressive Goisses, but its place in the hierarchy of vintages is quite apparent in this epic tasting. (AG) - VM
