1er Cru Classé, Barsac
(Harvest 1 Oct ~ 23 Oct; 2,500 cases; 14.3% abv; 114g/l res)
Mid-deep gold, bright; spicy nose, almost medicinal aromas, and quite unlike the other wines’ aromas – (perhaps the result of this vintage’s passerillé, and lack of botrytis); rich, creamy, not as much complexity as some, but this carries its richness with great finesse, and finishes with that spicy note picked up on the aroma. Lovely.
Tasted at our Château Climens Vertical Tasting, 22nd June 2004.
