Note di degustazione
Laville's 1996 is one of the lighter-styled efforts from this estate in the nineties. Nevertheless, it has managed to cram gorgeous levels of complexity and elegance into a citrusy, melony, richly fruity format. While it does not possess the weight and body of such blockbuster vintages as 1994, it is impressive. There is good acidity, and the wine comes across as clean, crisp, and stylish in an understated, restrained manner. This wine should drink well for 12-15+ years. Last tasted 11/97

Fatter, more exotic aromas of hay, minerals, spice and honey; slightly dulled today by some sulfur. Rich and ripe; fatter and considerably longer than the '97. Has the glyceral texture of semillon, but also possesses a firm citric spine.
