Tasting Notes

Rich and smoky in a nonetheless elegant package, with layered notes of wild strawberry, pastry, pomegranate, toasted brioche, candied orange zest, dried tea rose and almond cream. This shows beautiful texture and integration, with a long, creamy, smoke-tinged finish. Drink now through 2020. 20 cases imported.

A wonderful wine that has preserved its freshness while welcoming elements of toasty maturity. It is crisp, definitely on the dry side, with red currants, bright wild strawberries over the purest acidity. It's sure to age over many years, but, if you must, can be drunk now.
