Tasting notes
(Vireuils-Dessuos; the village bottling shipped to the U.S.) Aromatic nose combines orange oil, grilled almond and spices; totally different from the 2004s that preceded this wine. Rich, spicy and layered in the mouth, with an exotic orange flavor. Builds nicely toward the back and finishes firm and fresh.

(from Vireuils-Dessus) Lime, peach and spicy oak on the nose; less pristine than the Enseigneres. Sweet, soft and spicy, with a layered texture and good flavor intensity. Rich but not flat. Still holding a lot of gas but ultimately on the soft side.
