Golden color. Somewhat heavy in the glass. Fruity nose with lemon, apricot, almond paste, spice. Very glycerol and rich in the mouth. Wet stone, orange, and a little mint. Muted acidity. Nice in the mid palate. Finish lingers. I don't think it will get better, drink up.

These supposedly off years by old great producers are simply gems... Extreme front to back balance, sun drenched hay, touch of dry peach, apricot pits, crushed pebbles, shells, bits of honeysuckle, and a soft acid backbone that lingers and touches your spine. Better than most grand cru's I have had in famous vintages. Speaks more to development than popular knowledge/science which is never meets great expectations in wine. Try it to love and live it !
