Tasting Notes
Aroma
The nose is frank, pleasant and intense. Dominant candied aromas of autumn
fruit, mirabelle plum, quince, mushroom and honey. Aeration amplifies these
scents, revealing orgeat and a complex roasted, smoky register. The nose,
already very open, reveals a perfect varietal profile, with the first hints of terroir.
Excellent!!!
Appearance
The color is lemon-yellow with light reflections of good intensity. The disk is
bright, limpid and transparent.
Palate
The attack on the palate is full-bodied and mellow, with a full-bodied alcohol
base. The mid-palate is lively, marked by pearlescence. The noble range of
aromas on the nose continues, with autumn fruit, quince, mirabelle plum,
button mushroom, orgeat, honey and smoky, toasty notes. A touch of
bitterness. The finish is long, 12-13 caudalies, with fine vivacity and persistent
bitterness. Voluminous and compact, the balance is tasty and endowed with a
racy, dazzling aromatic palette. The dimension of the terroir is already
expressed. A great wine in the making.
Vinification
Pressing of whole grapes, static racking. Fermentation in thermocontrolled tuns
from 1 to 4 months. Matured on fine lees during 8 months.
Food Matching
Pair with foie gras shavings and honey-stewed mirabelle plums, roast veal with
quince and rosemary, Chinese-style glazed pork or a soft cheese with a washed
rind, such as Epoisses.
