Nice wine in many ways, though sadly a disturbing bitterness dominates the finish, cutting off its juicy lemon verbena and tart apple flavors.

16.5/20 (91/100) Оксидативный стиль, ферментация и выдержка на осадке в дубе в течение 13 месяцев. Аромат абрикосового и яблочного варенья, грушевого пюре и жареных лесных орехов. Умеренная тельность, высокая кислотность. Вкус отстаёт в насыщенности от аромата, но, всё-равно отлично.

Fruity and light perfect pairing with light meals. Had it with a tiramisu and it brought a good balance to the chocolate flavor

Took a while to open up. Recommend decanting. Silky texture and aromas of beeswax and honey. Bone dry and lingering acidity. Really developed with air.

Gött frisk och fräsch med gröna äpplen och mogen citron. Torr och balanserad syra

An acidic beurre blanc killed the wine. But even by itself I missed the rich fruity wood from Savannières.
