Written Notes

This was in the days when Bouchard Père et Fils took half of the crop. Louis-Michel was left with 1781 bottles. Full, youthful colour. Lovely rich, very concentrated, multi-dimensional nose. Essence of high quality fruit. Very good tannins. Fullish body. Harmonious. Subtle. Very classy. A very lovely wine of indisputably high grand cru status.

Bright ruby. Scented, red berries, fruity, more power, less obvious finesse, detailed and layered nose, floral notes and minerals beneath. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, fruity, rounded, elegant, refined, somewhat fuller balance, detailed, long.
