Note di degustazione
Dried fruits, hazelnut and toasty oak on the nose, plus a whiff of caramelized banana. Powerful and tightly wound, with surprising acidity enlivening the flavors of peach, citrus peel, spices and minerals. This has terrific cut and persistence but will need a good six or seven years of cellaring. Martin Prieur compares this to the 2002 Combettes in aging potential and notes that this cuvee, from a large holding of 1.49 hectares, is becoming the estate's calling card.

(like the Beaune, this still has about four grams of residual sugar) Sweet aromas of peach, apricot, apple and flowers, but in a caramelly, slightly oxidative phase and in need of a sulfur addition. A fat, sweet, supple fruit bomb on the palate but has style and freshness. A bit exotic today, but this leaves you salivating. Judgment deferred.
