On nose

Initial floral nose gives way to notes of fresh almonds, dried apricots and toasted brioche.

On palate

The wine is full and round without being opulent and expresses great harmony. The attack is definite and intense leading to a silky finish reminiscent of preserved citrus fruits.

The harvest

After a mild winter, flowering took place under difficult conditions with low temperatures and rain. The scorching summer which followed continued right through to just before harvest when heavy rains began to fall. The harvest began between September 11th and 20th. The resulting wines are exceptional in their quality and homogeneity.
