Tasting notes
Pale color. Very ripe aromas of peach, nut oil and vanillin oak. Intensely mineral in the mouth, conveying a strong impression of crushed stone to go with its captivating peach and nectarine fruit flavors. A very concentrated, pure, dense wine of considerable finesse. Finishes very aromatic and long. Offers terrific aging potential. Girardin noted that there was no hydric stress here in 2004. Wonderfully fresh and stylish grand cru.

Medium yellow. Strongly mineral aromas of cold steel, crushed stone, apple and clove. Sappy and penetrating on the palate, with wonderfully aromatic flavors of peach, white flowers and minerals. This is almost painful today, owing to its steely quality and strong acids.
