A very good year
The characteristic of this wine is its harmony between the very soft and very fine structure and the complex aroma given by the earth of the \Graves\". There is a lot of charm in this bottle which could be consumed either in the next few years or be kept in the cellar as the wine will age remarkably."""
Current vintage notes
1995 was a precocious year. The winter was mild and the spring hot and dry. The bud burst and the flowering were precocious and homogeneous. June, July and August were characterised by hot temperatures and no rain. Some of the vines with superficial roots as for young vines suffered from dryness. The harvest was perfectly ripe and sound although September was cooler than usual and rainy in the middle of the month.
