The last vintage from the master Gerard Potel and what a lovely bottle it was. Fresh, elegant, floral and perfectly mature, though with plenty of life left, and the perfect balance of tertiary expression and fruit purity. Pousse d’or with age rarely disappoints.

layers on the nose: floral, herbal, potpourri, truffle, forest floor, spicy fruits and minerals
juicy palate of red fruits leans tart, with a woodsy and slightly smoky finish
