Note di degustazione
Reticent aromas of crushed stone and menthol. Tactile and perfumed in the mouth; a step up in concentration and grip from the Vireuils. Flavors of lime skin and hazelnut are nicely lifted by a floral element. Plenty of texture and sweetness here. Finishes with lovely persistence. Roulot prefers the 2004 vintage to 2005, but not for this wine, as the normally high acidity here favored the '05.

Aromas of soft citrus fruits and stone. Sweet orange and stone flavors enlivened by bright acidity. (The Meix Chavaux is always the highest-acid wine in the cellar, notes Roulot: this has 4 grams with a pH barely over 3.0, while most of the rest of these 2005s are around 3.8 grams, with pHs in the 3.15 to 3.2 range.) Tactile, chewy and quite dry on the back end, finishing with impressive clinging length. This large (a full hectare) parcel includes everything from 10- to 70-year-old vines.
