Located in a very cool site, in a difficult environment, this vineyard needs a warmer vintage to succeed, which 2008 wasn't. The wine is high in acidity, almost sour, and the apricot flavors are intense and overpowering. Lots of new oak provides a welcome, softening richness, but the wine still tastes sharp and unbalanced.
