Pierre Duroché's 2012s are among the most tender, delicate wines of the year. I tasted all of the 2012s from tank just prior to bottling, which was scheduled for December 2013. Generally speaking, I am not crazy about tasting from tank, as steel tends to close wines down. I will not be surprised if some or all of these wines show better after bottling. In addition to these wines, I also tasted the Griotte, but it was in an awkward stage and impossible to evaluate.
