"Racy aromas of quinine, crushed stone, lime and mint. Bright, rich and penetrating, with a captivating sugar/acid balance and cut that's even more impressive in the context of this very hot year. Extremely long finish dusts the palate with powdered stone. And yet this very long wine is suppler and less austere than usual. One of the most promising premier crus of the vintage. The vines in this holding range from 30 to 55 years of age."
