Note di degustazione
The 2003 St.-Joseph Les Granits blanc (327 cases) tastes like 10-W-40 orange oil. Extremely full-bodied, alcoholic, potent, thick, and unctuous, it is nearly too rich to be believed. In keeping with Chapoutier’s philosophy that nothing can be touched or altered, this is an extraordinary expression of the granite terroir of St.-Joseph as well as the exotic, immortal concentration levels of this unusual vintage. This wine should drink well young, but its power and richness suggest it will age far better than expected given its low acidity. Importer: Paterno Imports, Lake Bluff, IL; tel. (847) 604-8900

(bottled in October of 2004) Very ripe aromas of peach preserves, apricot, smoke and minerals. Fat and rich, with opulent fruit salad flavors. A bit blowsy for this cuvee -or does this just have more baby fat than usual? Finishes warm but firm.
