Note di degustazione
Made from an incredibly tiny yield of 10-15 hectoliters per hectare, 1997 St.-Joseph Les Granites offers an apricot/orange liqueur-like note, along with the pronounced mineral characteristic of the granitic soil in which this 80-year old parcel of vines is planted. What is so amazing about this single-vineyard wine is that it is aged in 100% new oak, but there is very little evidence of wood in the wine, a testament to its extraordinary concentration and richness. Because of low acidity, look for the 1997 to have a fast evolutionary track - 7-10 years. Importer: Paterno Imports, Lake Bluff, IL; tel. (847) 604-8900

Tasted from barrique Ripe, nutty aromas of smoke, spring flowers and honey. Full, rich and honeyed; concentrated and firm. Finishes well. (This cuvée was vinified in oak for the first time in '98).
