The 2001 Hermitage Pied de Cote offers peppery, herbal, black currant fruit, moderate concentration, medium body, and fine elegance as well as finesse. It is a wine to drink during its first 7-8 years of life. Importer: Frederick Wildman, New York, NY; tel. (212) 355-0700

The medium ruby-colored, soft, fruity 2000 Hermitage Pied de Cote is significantly inferior to what I tasted last year. Simple, straightforward, and shallow, it is disappointing for a wine from this appellation. Anticipated maturity: now. Importer: Frederick Wildman, New York, NY; tel. (212) 355-0700

The Hermitage Pied de Cote (a 13,000 bottle cuvee made from young vines) is open-knit, herbaceous, medium-bodied, and superficially attractive. While it reveals some Hermitage character, it is essentially soft and fluid. The 1999 possesses round, easygoing, user-friendly flavors, but minimal depth. It possesses a distinct herbaceous note running through the aromatics and flavors. It is best consumed during its first 7-8 years of life. Importer: Frederick Wildman, New York, NY; tel.
