Winemaker Claire Forestier carried out a very gentle extraction in 2003 as she was afraid of making overly tannic wines.Even so, total phenolic components are about 25% higher than normal in the 2003s. She reported that the acids went up during the fermentations, due to the amount of tartaric acidity in the lees. Still, the pHs of these wines are quite high, around 3.85. These are very rich wines with the signature of the vintage.The 2002s here show lovely balance and elegance.
