The golden hue and exceptional purity. A very precise wine. Mineral backbone and good complexity. The first nose is dominated by aromas of white flowers and licorice. The palate is full-bodied, smooth, and rich with a delicate acidity that gives it a lively finish. This wine offers excellent aging potential. Discreet peppery and woody notes evolve. Very persistent finish.
There is a touch of reduction here, but with excellent intensity. Very good subtlety behind it. Delicious and with impressive weight and energy, some ripe chardonnay spice, very complete all the way through, and an excellent aftertaste.
