The 1995 white wines exhibit good fruit, excellent body, and considerable freshness and intensity.
The 1995 St.-Joseph Le Grand Pompee (100% Marsanne) exhibits lovely tangerine and grapefruit-like characteristics, Mandarin orange/apricot flavors, good body and richness, and a straightforward, crisp finish. Like its sibling, the Crozes-Hermitage La Mule Blanche, this wine should be drunk over the next several years. After declassifying most of their top cuvees in 1993 and producing 1994s that were sound, but generally uninspiring (several wines that have been re-reviewed in the following text are showing better), this hallowed firm just south of the village of Tain l'Hermitage has produced very high quality 1995s. That's good news for the many fans of Paul Jaboulet-Aine.
