The wines from Comte Senard that appear to have the best chance of achieving harmony include the 1990 Corton-en-Charlemagne. A rare red wine, it exhibits an opaque dark purple color, a closed nose with vague aromas of ripe plums and prunes, as well as gobs of smoky new oak. Full-bodied and rich, but so tough and hard, this wine needs at least a decade of cellaring. If the fruit holds up, it will be outstanding. Importer: William Grant & Sons, New York, NY. I have to admit to a certain degree of confusion concerning the 1990s of Comte Senard. The wines I tasted were extremely oaky, tannic, and backward, and nearly impossible to judge. I share this thought because otherwise, the wines are impressively endowed. But will the wood and tannin outlive the fruit?
