These are funny wines - they are so in your face with the orange peel and honey and white fruits and then suddenly there's this hint of acidity and rather than being cloying these are more enticing. Not subtle though. This is a dessert wine that can stand coming after three big reds ('96 Ducru, '05 Pontet Canet, '94 La Mouline). Delicious as always.

Have seen them coming out at more reasonable prices of late which leads me to think some ppl believe they're starting to go downhill, but we haven't seen any sign of that. Taste very similar to the way they did a few years ago.
