Tasting notes
A gourmet, pleasant and charming wine. A silky length and aromas of fresh apricots mixed with a minerality that echoes the stony ground of the vine.
Food and wine pairings
A wine that could be nicely associated with a fresh goat's cheese
Reviews
"A pale lemon yellow colour. There is class and tension here. Racked with lots of lees and those from the new wood have given some extra weight but a bit too much vanilla. There is plenty here but needs to refine during the rest of its elevage. Exceptional persistence.
