Tasting note
I could also preview the 2007 Les Vignes de Mon Père, which might not be bottled before one year from now, as the wine still felt very young and showed lots of citrus, with an incredible acidity and vivacity. I asked Jean-François Ganevat what his favorite vintages of Les Vignes de Mon Père were, and he told me that he especially liked 2003 and 2007, two completely different, almost opposite vintages, one very warm and ripe when the wine show incredible power, and 2007 a cold and austere vintage, all about finesse and minerality, long and super tasty. Unfortunately there is only one 500-liter foudre of this incredible elixir. I'm very reluctant to report on unfinished wines, and I always have doubts about the freshness of samples, and I want to be especially cautious when I foresee a high score, but this certainly looked extremely good...
Score: 97-100
