Magnum. Quite evolved, full and ripe on the nose. Gorgeous restrained beeswax, apple, peach and lemon aromas, touch of herbs. Mid-weight on the palate, again ripe flavours that follow the nose, rich-textured. More than enough acidity to keep it fresh. With air this integrates and tightens, becomes distinctly mineral. Terrific finish with impressive intensity for a village wine. Superb.

Astonishing Village wine of a hot vintage: ripe apple and citrus fruit, salty, good length, still very fresh with nice acidity. This one can go for years.

Clean and showing extremely well. Roulot produced great wines in 2009. Citrus fruits and good acidity.

Bit more dull than 2010s, has bitterness on palate which to me reflects solar vintage.

On decline. Nutty bouquet. Good structure, but lacks focus and intensity of flavors.
