Colour
Golden hue.
Bouquet
Biscuit and honey appear on the first nose, followed by aromas of linden and oriental spices, while the fruitiness remains very subtle. Then, the nose expresses an enticing palette of undergrowth, Passe-Crassane pear, liquorice and seaweed, elegantly swinging between surf and turf. This sophisticated nose is the trademark of an exceptional cuvée.
Flavour
The attack on the palate is highly balanced, nicely blending smoothness and liveliness. Then, the wine seems to unfold: mouth-watering acidity and creamy effervescence harmoniously give birth to a silky texture. This full-bodied wine displays enough character to enhance the perfect balance of this opulent material, lingering on “biscuity – wooden” base notes. The finish is crisp and highly mouth-watering. The wine ends its journey on a sharp and salty note.
Ideal partner for gratinated oysters, fish curry, sole meunière, grilled lobster with spices.
