Tasting notes
Medium yellow. Peach, menthol and stone on the nose. Fat, full and sweet, with a distinctly glyceral texture. In spite of this wine's atypical volume, it strikes me as quite backward and in need of a couple years of patience.

Aromas of peach, menthol and white flowers. Firm and juicy, with harmonious acidity and a floral element giving this grand cru a light touch and good inner-mouth aromatic character. With its firmness and saline minerality, this deep, very long wine largely avoids the exotic side of the vintage.
