Harvest began on 15 September. Red wines came from Champs de Linotte in Hautvillers (close to the seat of Dom P) and Vauzelles in Aÿ.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e\u003cem style=\"background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003eFirst bottle:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e Pale to mid salmon pink (much deeper than a typical Provence rosé). There's some note that's mineral or iodine or oyster shell on the nose of this. Then we segue into something floral – rose petals? even candied rose petals. This doesn't have quite the substance and undertow of the 2012 and 2003 P2 reviewed alongside. Perhaps it will develop it, but this bottle seems a bit simple. I will open a backup sample to check it out and ensure this is not a cork effect. There doesn't seem to be any TCA on the nose but there is a slight shortage of fruit and no great follow-through on the palate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e\u003cem style=\"background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003eSecond bottle:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e This bottle has more fruit on the palate but it still doesn't have real zest and tension. And it rather falls away on the finish.
