Score 88/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Sep 2007

Lower-toned aromas of orange oil, clove and spicy oak. Sweet and fruity, if a bit less obviously ripe than the village wine. Ultimately a bit lean, with some acidity showing. Can't match the young 2006 for personality.

Score 86-88/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Jul 2006

(from vines in excess of 40 years of age, which Boillot told me suffered in the heat of 2003 and produced lower-than-normal crop loads in both 2004 and 2005) Higher-toned aromas of ripe peach and flowers. Reasonably dense but in a drier style. I don't find a lot of personality or flavor interest here. Seems a bit flat. Today I find the village sample longer. Boillot told me he may yet declassify this juice.

Lemony definition and good focus. Jewel-cut but the alcohol makes its presence felt! Slightly big for its boots. (JR)
