Tasting Notes

Nose: First nose of white flowers and toast, with well-melted minerality, followed by a fresh honey character and aromas of pear Eau-de-Vie and dried apricot.

Palate: Fruity on the palate, with volume and suppleness and a light woody frame.
The dominant, harmonious Chardonnay then reveals exoticism and spice.
The knowlegde of oak barrel is confirmed, bringing the white grape variety into the limelight.

Food & wine pairing: Thai cuisine, Peruvian ceviche, tajine with figs and apricots.
