Gerard Boudot believes the young 2004s show a balance similar to that of the 2000s. "The wines have correct maturity and good acidity," said Boudot, who had not acidified the new vintage as of the end of May. "The 2004s are not as big as 2002, though," he added. "They don't have as much aromatic punch or concentration as 2002, but they are wines in a classic style." Boudot did no lees stirring with his 2003s, and racked the wines from barrel into tank barely eight months after the harvest, keeping a lot of CO2 and limiting oxygenation of the wines. All of the '03s were bottled before Christmas of 2004. "I tell my clients to drink them within three or four years; ageability is certainly a big question mark with the 2003 vintage."
