Beautifully mature nose displaying succulent ripe yellow fruit, dry yellow peach, tarte tatin, marzipan, sweet spices, honey and limestone. Excellent concentration, layers upon layers of succulent sweet yellow fruit, fine generous mousse, rich and deeply toned but also energetic and detailed, beautiful harmony and balance, perfect amount of acidity and limestone mineral, and a seamless long yellow fruit driven finish with sweet spices and sweet spices at the end. Not too oxidative. This opulent rich and complex Champagne is drinking perfectly.

Fully mature nose displaying rich slightly dry yellow fruit, caramel apple, apple cider, a hint of sherry, cream brulee, yeast, cinnamon and mineral. Excellent concentration, finely layered sweet yellow fruit, medium fine medium generous mousse, medium acidity and mineral, and a medium to long sweet yellow fruit driven finish with apple peel and cinnamon at the end. As rich as this is, the VO is even richer. It is also more oxidative.

Medium expressive nose displaying ripe orchard yellow fruit, peach, peach cobbler, apricot, orange marmalade, saline, sweet spices and limestone. Excellent concentration, deeply toned sweet yellow fruit, rich and dense yet also precise and nicely balanced, good acidity and strong mineral, and a long sweet yellow fruit driven finish with sea salt and sweet spices at the end. Much sweater and deeper impression than the CSH.

Beautifully perfumed youthful nose displaying concentrated cool yellow citrus fruit, lemon curd, apple, petrol, lanolin, honey, spicy spices, saline and crushed rose petal mixed with crushed rock. Excellent concentration, very finely layered cool citrus fruit, opulent yet very price and focused, perfect amount of acidity and unbelievable mineral, and an energetic long concentrated sweet yet cool citrus fruit driven finish with rose and limestone at the end. The palate is deceptively sweet yet the finish is completely dry, a text book Clos St Hune. A long life a head.

Expressive youthful nose displaying intense black fruit, crushed blackberry, black cherry, blackberry liqueur, liquid smoke, perfume, white pepper, rare charred steak, garrigue, perfume, Chinese herbal medicine and crushed rocks. Although clearly expressing Syrah, there is a hint of DRC like stem and Vosne spice. Excellent concentration, layers upon layers of intense black fruit, rich and dense but also pure and harmonious, bright acidity, strong rocky mineral, noticeable fine tannins, and a long intense concentrated black fruit driven finish with liquid smoke and white pepper at the end. This is the first time I noticed stem in La Las. This can easily improve for another decade or two. I would not be surprised if it develop like the 90 or 91. Excellent showing.

Medium expressive nose displaying subtle black and red fruit, blackberry, cherry, caramel, soy, rare steak, tea and earth. Nicely integrated palate, nicely layered subtle black and red fruit, silky and polished, medium acidity, strong mineral, nicely integrated tannins and a seamless long subtle black fruit driven finish with soy at the end. This is a fully integrated example. It suffers next to the 05 which is bigger and more concentrated. Drinking well.

Intense nose displaying incredibly concentrated black fruit, blackberry liqueur, crushed blackberry, black cherry, licorice, incense, caramel, white pepper, garrigue, cedar, dark spices and mineral. Exceptional concentration, layers upon layers of intense black fruit, rich and dense yet also pure and polished, perfect amount of acidity and limestone mineral, noticeable but fine tannins, and a long concentrated black fruit driven finish with liquid smoke and dark spices at the end. Although it remains youthful and can improve for a couple more decades, this is drinking incredibly well. My educated guess is that this will easily surpass the 90.

Beautiful mature nose displaying sweet slightly dry red fruit, raspberry jam, strawberry, a hint sous bois, light caramel, mocha, sweet spices, tree bark and mineral. Medium concentration, finely layered sweet red fruit, silky and air, good acidity, medium mineral, noticeable but fine tannins and a seamless long subtle sweet red fruit driven finish with caramel and sous bois at the end. The mid-palate is lacking a bit. I find the 07 Red Burgundy similar to the 01, i.e. expressive nose and always open, medium body with slightly dry tannins. Really enjoyable wine.

Youthful nose displaying sweet black and red fruit, strawberry, cherry, blackberry, cedar, caramel, Vosne spice, spicy spices and earth. Medium concentration, finely layered sweet red fruit, silky and polished, medium acidity, strong earthy mineral, fine tannins and a medium to long sweet red fruit driven finish with caramel and Vosne spice at the end. This can benefit from another decade of cellaring.

Youthful expressive nose displaying concentrated ripe yet pure black fruit, blackberry, black cherry, caramel, lavender, and earth. Excellent concentration, layers upon layers of sweet black fruit, rich, generous and opulent, but also pure and polished, perfect amount of acidity and mineral, a hint of sweet tannins, and a seamless long opulent black fruit driven finish with caramel at the end. Although very youthful, it is drinking beautifully with ample sweet black fruit. Excellent showing!

Beautiful bright amber. Hedonistic nose displaying opulent yellow fruit, apricot, apricot marmalade, peach, a hint of dry fig, red currant, dry orange peel, tea, spicy spices, copper, saline and limestone. Exceptional concentration, unbelievably layers decadent pure yellow fruit, intense yet sensual and weightless, bright acidity, strong steely mineral, and a seamless long decadent yellow fruit driven finish with tea and coopery mineral at the end. The palate is simply perfect. For my palate, one of the greatest wines!
