Aromas are dashing, well-stated and floral, opening with hints of lily of the valley, elderflower and citrus zest. With age, it takes on rocky hints of flint, tinder, hydrocarbons. Lemon, lime and yusu zest roll around the mouth right up to the acidic, delicate and addictive final note.

Delicate floral notes of rose and jasmine interact with hints of peach, mirabelle, lychee, mango and dragon fruit. The precision of the final note could even lead some of its detractors to become reconciled with this strong-headed grape variety.

Aromas of musk, candied quince, grilled orange zest, marmalade and acacia honey. On the palate, it is constant and harmonious, creamy and full. The harmonious and elegant final note is moderately acid and remarkable for its refined and noble bitterness.

The elegant, profound, complex and well-balanced flavour is perfectly structured over time by its beautifully mature acidity from which there is no sweetness to distract. This is a dry white wine.

This wine is dashing, musky, smoky with the hints of fresh almond and fresh nuts which combine with the kind of patina and butteryness. The broad, flavoursome and intensely saline taste is full-bodied and lively, and its energetic acidity.
