Franck Peillot
Roussette du Bugey-Montagnieu Altesse
Montagnieu, Bugey, Savoie, France
Nose has thinned honey, beeswax candle, grapefruit pith, distant honeysuckle and sliced pear.
Palate has honey drizzle over white grapefruit supremes, lime zest, under-ripe green melon, lemon verbena tea, white peach, with medium acidity and finish.
A quite nice wine, catching me off guard with mild expectations; I'm happy with the outcome.
Decanted 90m.
100% Altesse, from Bugey!
