  • Tasting notes

    Golden yellow color with silver-gray highlights and subtle bubbles. The nose is complex with ripe notes of mandarin, candied fruit, scotch, roasted almonds, and gingerbread. Here and there, fresh hints of apple and white fruit. The palate is smooth, silky, and full-bodied, with a lovely minerality and fresh acidity, revealing aromas of orange zest, sherry, truffle, and brioche. The finish is long with notes of vanilla, spice, and a hint of bitterness. Beautifully balanced.

    Serve between 10 and 12°C.
    Store in a cool, dark place.
  • Production

    Only the purest and most concentrated grape juices are used. These juices are 100% aged in oak barrels, and malolactic fermentation is excluded. The wine has now aged on the lees in the bottle for 84 months (7 years).
