(vinified entirely with whole clusters, but Perrot-Minot removed the main stalk--i. e. , the peduncle--of each cluster in order to get a more floral character in the wine without obvious herbacity; all of the following wines were "de-structured" in the same way): Deep, unevolved aromas of dark fruits, licorice, flowers, menthol and spearmint oil. Densely packed and powerful, showing terrific energy and minty lift to the flavors of dark raspberry and menthol complicated by smoky soil tones. Boasts grand cru dimension for the year, finishing with big but thoroughly ripe tannins and terrific mineral thrust and grip. The wine's energy, structure and medicinal reserve suggest it will age very slowly.
