Very good to excellent length. Leans to Sancerre styling with distinctive sappy, grapefruit, gooseberry. The penetrating nose is terrific with all kinds of blackcurrant, lime, roasted coffee and leathery notes. Good density and firm acidity too. I caught a tinge of fruit oxidation on the palate.
Tannin is firm, slightly green.
The length is excellent. Best 2003 to 2008. Very deep colour and bright appearance. Very good length. Best 2000 to 2005.
