2010: an interesting vintage year
Vintage year review :
The Harvest started on September 23rd, a shinny day. But the fact is that the harvest is a small one, with small grapes. As a result, the 2010 vintage year seems to be highly concentred and subtle.
Tasting advice:
2010 is a vintage of elegance and precision. It is one of the favorite vintage of the winemakers. It has a great potential of ageing.
