Picked on Thursday 20th two days before the real harvest. Yet already the nose is almost over ripe! Promising lots of flesh behind. Terrific balance. Lots of weight, more white fruit than yellow, a little barrel toast though more at the finish and will integrate easily enough. The flesh covers most of the acidity too. Fine long aftertaste. This wine bears testimony to Jean-Pierre’s intelligence and savoir faire. 92-94 Points
