Virgile Lignier described 2004 as a difficult year, due in large part to the attack of oidium. "We got reasonable sugars, but the phenolic maturity was not good," he told me. "The problem is that the wines often show a ripe middle palate but dry tannins. We were very careful about pigeage; during vinification we looked for sweet, soft tannins and we did everything we could to avoid vegetal tannins. "(A Becky Wasserman selection, importers include Polaner Selections, Mt. Kisco, NY and Veritas Imports, Beverly Hills, CA)
