and his vines occupy all of the top section)

Pretty notes of honeysuckle and a mix of citrus and white orchard fruit

Like the Clos de Vougeot

was how clear Gaja’s recollection was of events that transpired fifty years ago

The 2013 Iron Syrah has a roundness and softness on the nose that almost belies its complexity - red berry fruit

This moderately robust effort is classic Grèves

well-balanced

along with a clean mineral note of hot stone

the 2001 Truffières is finer and purer still with simply exquisite white fruit and citrus aromas that lead to flavors that are equally suffused with an intense mineral stoniness

but the purity of the fruit is impossible to miss even at this early stage

my favorite wine from Muga

Note that this is sufficiently firm to warrant 6 to 8 years of keeping
