Wine Enthusiast
Review Date: 12/2005The first nosings find aromas of synthetic cotton; later sniffings pick up vegetal scents of peas and asparagus with a background note of wax floor polish. The palate entry is spirity and lightly toffee-like; the midpalate features accurate tastes of cane, honey, and vanilla bean. Ends on an off-dry note with smooth, biscuity, and grassy flavors.

Notes
It had been a while since I'd tasted this fabulous potion. Truly one of the most incredible agricoles available. Fresh and fragrant, this is one of the cleaner Vieux Agricoles on the market. Only a slight amber hue, its color belies the incredible depth exhibited on the nose. The palate is very dry and perhaps a bit subtle, but utterly drinkable. Probably the best choice for someone who's interested in experiencing Agricole for the first time, but also a great bottle for any seasoned expert. (David Othenin-Girard, K&L Spirits Buyer)
