"This particular bottling hailed from the domaine’s own parcel of vines in the lieu à dit of Vireuils (though it does not appear on the label). This was a very fresh and pure bottle, offering up a deep and classic bouquet of apple, tangerine, iodine, gentle nuttiness, lovely minerality and a fine base of toasty new oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, crisp and very minerally in personality, with snappy acids, excellent focus and grip and a very long, pure and complex finish. Fine juice."
