A glass before dinner. Really fell in love with this producer during my visit in October 22. I like the style of their cuvées and their neutral wood use. They are a producer that ferments in wood more than most.
The nose shows; overripe pineapple, very ripe yellow peach, Bosc pear, mix of red & green apple, white citrus blend, touch of apple cider, brioche, bread dough, saline, sea fossils, withering yellow lilies and spring flower bouquet.
Nice mouth entry, juicy and round. very ripe yellow peach, overripe, juicy yellow peach, nectarines, ripe Bosc pear, mix of red & green apple, white citrus blend-white & pink grapefruit dominant, touch of apple cider, some marmalade, honey notes, brioche, bread dough, vanilln & caramel hues, baguette crust, saline, sea fossils, understated, soft chalkiness that presses the palate on the long set, soft raw ginger, white pepper, withering yellow lilies and spring flower bouquet, round rainfall acidity, nicely, structured, well tensioned, balanced & elegant finish that lasts a full minute.

Emotion unveils orange oil, red berries, bruised red apple, barberry, almonds, wet mouldy cellar and sausage roll (sic!). A bit disturbing and tempting at the same time. Pointy, oily and racy. Nice chalky finish.
