Note di degustazione
Fully developed nose with plenty of bitter orange and bergamot, plus some summer-meadow character. Very mature, full-bodied palate with an intense, bready character. The firm tannins hold all this together, but will not suit everyoneâs palate. Just enough acidity. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink now.

(bottled two weeks before my visit): Pale yellow. Pure, subdued aromas of peach and menthol. Cool and youthfully streamlined, with lovely perfumed lift and cut to the sharply chiseled stone fruit, mineral and menthol flavors. Penetrating, young and very long, finishing with chewy stony grip. This will need at least six years in the cellar.
Chalky nose and lots of substance on the palate. I didn't see a massive increase in concentration between this and Pucelles but perhaps that will come. Lots of texture and nerve here with more of the citrus notes on the end. Obviously needs lots of time to develop and evolve. Still a baby. (JR)
