Nose
Perfumed with notes of nectarine, white flowers and citrus which are enhanced by the barrel ageing.
Palate
Multilayered and already complex, combining white peach, nectarine and some creamy notes. Wonderfully balanced by the savoury minerality.
Growing Conditions
The vintage had average yields and the rain that fell in January 80mm, and then February 15mm, and March 10 mm, had no effect at all on the fruit quality. The resultant wines have a wonderful aromatic quality and elegance, particularly in Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc.
Winemaking
100% for 10 months in French oak of which 31% was new.
Appearance
Brilliant pale gold.
Food Pairing
Grilled Crayfish with dill beurre blanc.
