"Knockout sweet nose of crystallized lime peel and wild flowers. Very full and deep; a superripe wine whose strong but harmonious acidity gives it finesse and near-perfect balance. Very young but not at all aggressive, and already compellingly aromatic in the mouth. Finishes with subtle, palate-staining persistence. A great premier cru, able to be enjoyed now but likely to gain in complexity over the next decade in bottle." Vinous, Sep 2001 |
