May 14th, 2020Le Cigare Blanc’s nose carries a whole bunch of tropical fruit with a touch of savory coming from the Beeswax Vineyard grapes, no doubt. The acidity here is a ripping affair, so seafood is a must. Lemons burst forth on the palate, with traces of pineapple, grapefruit and mango also showing. The finish is long and lanky and leaves the memory of Meyer lemon behind.
