Sweet game aroma almost like a Pinot Noir, exciting full white

Pale dress. Duel relationship between fresh acidic fruits (coing, green apple, white peach) and breeding bringing roundness and fat. (Oak, butter, hazelnut). The interstice connecting the two is occupied by vegetable notes (straw, white flowers, honeysuckle, beeswax). Typically as with the Chenins de Loire, saline acidity is high, counterbalancing the 14 degrees of alcohol here. Needs a décantation to give all its relief. Do not serve too cold, (10-12°). Gastronomic!

Robe pâle. Rapport duel entre fruits frais acides (Coing, pomme verte golden, pêche blanche) et élevage apportant rondeur et gras. (Chêne, beurre, noisette). L’interstice reliant les deux étant occupé par des notes végétales (paille, fleurs blanches, chèvrefeuille, cire d’abeille). Typiquement comme avec les Chenins de Loire, l’acidité saline est élevée contrebalançant ici les 14 degrés d’alcool. A besoin de prendre l’air pour donner tout son relief. Ne pas servir trop froid, (10-12°).

Very nice, round, sweet yet with some acidity. A great value. To drink on its own. Buy again (190SEK).
