Versus the 2008 of this wine, I found the 2007 to be more linear and sweet, having more vegetal notes with big acidity and grassy simple sucrosity. The nose really blossomed with some air.

The nose has waves of herbal, warm forest notes - just wow. The attack is huge and dense, concentrated, powerful and unctuous. Delicious and pure, quite sizable on the palate with good integration. It started to stumble some while in the glass - others at my table were not as excited about as I was.

A bit slow at first but then emerged as wine of great class, sumptuous yellow fruit, sappy on attack. Thins out on finish rather disappointingly. With air gets more of that hazelnut quality. Clear breed here but perhaps not very best vintage for this vineyard.

Coche and Cathiard: Lemon sherbet, soapy florals, peach, lime and vanilla. Lovely texture on the palate, even with a ripe streak of fruit, it balances out really well with the structural acidity. Really good fruit depth. It doesn't quite have the same brilliant spark as the 2011s tonight but there is a lot to like about this wine.

Coche Arbor 4. White fruit and melon aromatics. Powerful, persistent palate that delivers. 60 cases per year per Nical.
