Nose
perfumed with lime,
grapefruit, honeysuckle, and an underlain note of chalk stone. It
offers intense grapefruit, orange blossom and cedar notes with whiffs
of honeysuckle and herbs. Medium to full-bodied, it shows a nice
richness on the palate, with loads of fruit concentration and flavor
lifted by lively, natural acidity. It finishes long, shows good potential
for aging and should cellar gracefully to 2016+
Palate
Palate: The palate follows the nose, and is full of verve with bracing
acidity and citrus. The bright nature of this wine makes it a perfect
aperitif wine, pair with soft and creamy cheeses, light seafood dishes,
or to serve with early courses and salads at dinner. Citrus, grapefruit,
orange blossom, minerals, and kaffir lime leaves, all meld with the
wonderful acidity on your tongue. The wine is fermented in all
stainless steel tanks, then is transferred into used French oak to
soften for a few months prior to bottling.
