This is a more reserved, austere, restrained wine, with a tight but attractive nose of loamy earth, roasted coffee, herbs, and sweet, honeyed fruit. Medium to full-bodied, with tightly-wound flavors, good acidity, and moderate levels of botrytis, this is a less generous yet stylish, polite Gilette that should continue to age well for 15 or more years.
