Bruno Paillard's broad, imposing prestige cuvée meets the sunny and gregarious 2009 vintage to yield a wine split between weight, sunny ripeness, oak-influenced maturity and frank, structured firmness. The sum total is not quite as harmonious as the 2008, although followers of the cuvée will find a more approachable wine here; dried fig, prune and roasted apricot notes meet voluminous lemon-marmalade Chardonnay and mature notes of chestnut honey and apple brandy. It's rich, yet it closes with a real sense of extract and savour; it will settle well within two years.
