Note di degustazione
Picked exceptionally early between 23 and 31 August. Very hot summer nights sent acid levels plummeting. Deep orangey gold. Not much nose. Sweet palate entry. A bit heavy, but not oxidised. Hint of caramel and custard. Difficult to see the acidity and freshness. A bit of heat. Almost 14% (premiers crus were 14.5% in 2003). Robert Vifian calls it a monster. Such low acid! Still very astringent and slightly bitter. Not for me – though it’s possible that it could be revived by the perfect food match. A curiosity. Sweet! (JR)

Much less focussed and less delineated than Coche's usual offerings with just the merest hint of smoke on the nose. Relatively round and almost rich and sweet! No point in hanging on to this, I don't think. Though it's certainly flattering and more warm and cuddly than most Coche vintages. Certainly not flabby. Is it really, as advertised on the label, only 12.5% alcohol? (JR)
Pale color. Subdued aromas of licorice and spices, along with a faint resiny quality. Then rich, supple and strong in extract, with mineral and citrus flavors that are fresher than the nose suggests. Finishes with impressive length.
