For a long time, this wine had the "classic aromas" of Sauvignon Blanc, that is a little herbaceous. With time, the nose has become much more complex, and the wine has not lost its freshness. It is a perfect example of a wine improving through bottle ageing. The majority of the bottles are now tired, but some maintain a remarkable freshness. To be enjoyed now. (February 2025)
Climate
The weather conditions were very similar to those in the 1978 vintage: a wet spring, a hot summer in July and cool in August; and a very fine end to the summer. Once again, the grapes just managed to reach a very good level of ripeness. (The picking began 4th October)
