Score 95/100 · Allen Meadows, Burghound, May 2011
In contrast to the completely primary nose of the '01 Grand Epenots, here there is some secondary development that only adds to the overall appeal of the aromas. The rich, pure and noticeably more mineral-driven flavors exude precision on the powerful, concentrated and simply stunningly persistent finish that explodes onto the palate. This is a 'wow' wine for its intensity and impeccable balance.

About the producer
Domaine Michel Gaunoux
