Fragrance

Beautiful exotic nose, lightly apricot style.

Taste

It presents an intense, pure expression of apricot and orange marmalade. The expression of the fruit and its finesse are respected thanks to the use of old barrels and a limited amount of new oak. Filtration is very light.

Pairing

Oysters. Fish like sole fillets with morels. Grilled lobster. Scallop shell. Half-cooked duck foie gras. Soft cheeses.

Vinification

Fermented and ageing on lees during 10 months, with only 10% of new barrels.
