Martin Prieur considers 2004 one of the estate's "great white wine years, along with 1992."Vintage 2005, he went on, saw a perfect, easy harvest with no damaged grapes."The reds have great density, like the 1990s, but we were less impressed by the whites at the beginning, probably because we loved the 2004s.In fact, it's still easier to taste the 2004s now, so it's very early to make a judgment on the 2005s."Potential alcohols were in the very high 13.5% to 14.3% range in 2005, and the team has done much less stirring of the lees this year.I provide notes below on only those wines that had finished their malolactic fermentations when I visited the estate.A few samples, though, still had a bit of sugar to burn through.Incidentally, a few of the 2004s I tasted in early June were still in barrel.
