Tasting Notes
Steve Tanzer's International Wine Cellar 92-95
Pale, bright yellow. High-pitched nose hints at minerals and menthol; showing much less fruit today than the comparatively flamboyant Batard. Firmly built, classy and minerally, but quite elegant and discreet. Less complex and generous today than the Batard but there's still plenty of sweetness here. This will require at least three to five years of bottle aging.
Allen Meadows, Burghound 93
An airy and elegant floral and spice nose that is distinctly higher-pitched is trimmed in a deft touch of wood and while the oak is more prominent on the palate, it doesn't seem to unduly compromise the detail or delineation of the minerally medium weight flavors that are delicious, classy and persistent. There is a citrus component to the finish, which adds lift. In short, excellent if not mind blowing and a good deal more forward than a classically structured Chevy.
