Pale yellow with green highlights. Reticent but highly nuanced nose combines wet stone, lemon, lavender and green pepper. Suave and lemony on entry, then quite broad in the mouth, but showing less fruit and personality today than the Butteaux. Dry, classy wine with strong acidity and a distinctly austere aspect in the context of the year. Is this as deep as the Butteaux?
