Here is a vineyard that that was picked on the first day of the vintage. The nose is wide and nicely mineral. Again there is a soft and rather oily texture; it’s rich and slightly honeyed, but the overall effect is quite elegant. It seems more understated than the Gouttes, certainly without the ‘boom’ of that wine’s finish.
A fresh nose that initially is a little less focused than the villages wine but gets better and better in the glass as it warms. The palate is rich and powerful but is nicely cut by the citrussy acidity, expands quite well in the mid-palate. Today – and it hasn’t been bottled long – it has all the pieces to be a very fine wine but the cohesion, despite some balance seemed a little unconvincing. I’m sure this will be super and probably already more ‘together’ by the time you read this.
