Press ReviewPress

Nice texture, youthful and zesty with layers of stone fruits, bright freshness, rather long finish with some honey and wax on the aftertaste.

TastedWinter 2009/10

With ample richness, the lime-pear-orange combination arrived smooth and luscious; our notes recall flavors of mineral, touches of honey, nectarine, vanilla and even a slight hint of toasted nuts. This complex mix of intriguing flavors makes for a truly enjoyable drink. An extensive finish leaving an “all over the mouth” range of sensations, this would be a fine combination with a goat cheese soufflé, or lighter fish like trout in a cream sauce. Only the barest tiny bit of sweetness.

Winemaking

Early picking of the grapes, sometimes before full ripening to get a good acidity. No malolactic fermentation. To preserve maximum freshness the wine is bottled at the Chateau straight from the vat off its lees (Sur Lie) without any racking. The soils consist mainly of limestone and sand. The method of training is a single Guyot system.
