Note di degustazione
(14.2% alcohol) Good pale yellow. Superripe aromas of peach, pineapple, honey and oatmeal. Opulent, spicy and sweet but a bit low-pitched; dense and tactile but not particularly showy today. Finishes with considerable power and sweetness and outstanding length.

Knockout nose combines stone fruits, menthol, nutmeg and spicy nut oils. Fat and sweet to the point of unctuous but with harmonious, ripe acidity (4.0 grams) giving shape to this wonderfully sweet and full wine. (The Bienvenue is actually a bit lower in acidity.) This is like a liquid confection and should be terrific young and with bottle age. These are very old vines:Girardin relies on repiquage, replanting individual vines as they fail.
