Notes:

Even with the hail shock to the vines, this is clearly phenolically ripe, in fact it's elegant, pure and classy with its usual white flower aromas that are nuanced by oyster shell and obvious minerality that continue onto the rich, full, concentrated and almost painfully intense flavors that explode like a vinous bomb on the balanced and gorgeously long finish. This sports grand cru weight and depth and should age well over the medium term.Tasted: Oct 01, 2008 Burghound 91-94 - Sweet Spot Outstanding!
