A rich expression, gaining weight and beautiful leesy richness from extended time in barrel. Hazelnuts, lees, creme brûlée, butter and vanilla backed by generous mineral feel and some phenolic structure. You could easily say New World with the rich fruit, but the Maconnais core is under the fleshy goodness. A fine example of oxidative winemaking that is very complimentary to the wine.
