Tasting Notes
Clear brilliant, green gold colour. The nose is intense, opening onto complex overtones of flowers (hawthorn and honeysuckle) and fruits (lemon and exotic fruits), with toasted, vanilla hints. This wine is powerful and long-lasting in the mouth, with a succession of mineral, fruit and confit and lightly roasted aromas. Harmonious, withvery complex and fine aromas offering good prospects for maturing.
