"In many ways, 2007 is like 2003," Thierry Faravel told me. "The difference is that the tannins are very harmonious in 2007, and the fruit is fresher so the wines won't need as much time to come around. They should live for almost as long as the 2005s, which have similar tannins but less up-front fruit. " While discussing the need for freshness in wines, Faravel noted that "acidity carries the impression of minerality and is necessary to express terroir. Otherwise you just perceive simple fruit, which isn't very interesting to me. The fruit of wines with low acidity is just dull. "
