Au bout de deux ans, le vin a commencé à intégrer ses diverses composantes, mais ce n'est pas fini, il continuera de progresser, d'autant qu'il s'est un peu refermé.

Very rich and direct on the nose. Lots of botrytis. Very, very sweet and the acidity just struggles to assert itself. Very rich but zingy as well. Powerful but not hot. Quite open already on the nose but there is a lot here. BIG wine! (JR)
From magnum. Following the good flow ering period, the weather conditions remained ideal throughout the harvest, necessitating only three pickings. 70% of the harvest went into Grand Vin. Pure, with a very aromatic profile and a huge intensity of flavors, including acacia honey, apricots, and walnuts. Rich, outstanding balance, and sophisticated touch. It\'s a fabulous wine with great keeping potential.
