A smooth, mineral-rich cuvée

This wine, born from 50-year-old vines, combines concentration with transparency. It is carefully fermented with natural yeasts and boasts depth and a smooth texture from barrel aging. White flowers and ripe fruit intertwine with hints of spice and minerality, leading to a long, lingering finish. It's a high-quality wine that purely reflects the individuality of its terroir.

Tasting Comments

Tasting Notes
Appearance:
Pale, glistening lemon yellow. Moderate viscosity, giving an impression of concentration.

Nose:
A complex and elegant aroma of ripe white peach, apricot, and pear, with nuances of white flowers and honey. Further layers of subtle spice, vanilla from oak, and minerality intertwine.

Palate:
The attack is smooth, with a harmonious balance of rich fruit and supple acidity. While oak aging provides body and roundness, the minerality tightens the overall structure, leading to an elegant, long finish. This wine will reveal even greater depth with time.

Pairing
Creamed Chicken (Fricassee)
Pan-fried White Fish with Butter Sauce (Beurre Blanc)
Pan-seared Scallops (Light Sauce)
