Pale, green-tinged color. Apple and spice on the nose; at once more exotic and more austere than the '06. Ripe, supple and densely packed, with a piquant spice character to the apple and stone flavors. Finishes with subtly spicy dusty length and lingering sweetness.

Score 92-94/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Jul 2006
Very ripe aromas of peach, nutmeg and nutty oak. Sweet, chewy and deep but youthful and slow to evolve. This has terrific volume and underlying structure, with harmonious acids and a floral element giving it lift. A blend of fruit from Ladoix, Pernand and Aloxe.
