Uncompromising tribute to Tarlant’s Lutetian limestone plots
Markus Hofschuster Wein-Plus about 2005: Deep, firm and complex, pronounced yeasty scent of pomaceous fruit and a little citrus fruit with floral aromas and very fine, rather dark spiciness. Juicy, dense and ripe-fruity in the mouth, lively, fine mousseux, nutty and herbal aromas, also a hint of tobacco, has a grip, but also something open-hearted, very slightly oxidative, complex, certain strength and melting, enormous substance, becomes more in the air cooler and firmer, clear minerality, deep, multi-layered and long, with a proper pull at the back. In wonderful shape. 96/100P
Being cask fermented, it has a complex structure and its unique bouquet allies power and richness, balance and generosity.
