Tasting Notes

Straw-yellow colour with intense green highlights. Nose: High aromatic intensity with a first touch of freshness, caramel and cocoa which reminds of the oak influence in the wine. Then the varietal fruit notes take place in a more ripe and soothing way: quince and apple compote. Palate: Balanced and structured. Round, full-bodied and powerful with a nice balanced acidity thanks to the bâtonnage, as well as spiced and long lasting.
