Note di degustazione
Medium red, a bit less bright than the premier cru. Red plum, cherry and smoke on the nose, complicated by leather and spices. Round, ripe and broad; larger-scaled than the Vendanges Selectionnees but perhaps a bit less pure. Hints at the superripe character that often resulted in 2004 when vines hit by August hail gained quickly in grape sugars in the following weeks. Has the fat to support its dusty tannins. This one really calls for four or five years of bottle aging.

Medium red. Redcurrant, spices and pepper on the nose. Silky and fat on the palate, with supple flavors of red berries and spices. Conveys a higher-pH mouth feel, and finishes with sweeter tannins and more obvious length.
