Tasting Notes

True to the appellation, this is wonderfully elegant with an airy, cool and attractively layered nose of various floral scents, citrus, especially lemon and lime along with the classic wet stone influences that continue onto the vibrant flavors of crystalline purity and delineation. Like the Bienvenues, this is almost painfully intense and the explosive and beautifully well-balanced finish seems to be constructed out of liquid rock. It's trite but true to observe that this extraordinarily long effort is class in a glass.
