The intense robe, which is golden yellow with satiny tints, gives rise to abundant fine bubbles. Very expressive nose with complex notes of very ripe fruits (pear, quince) and fruit jelly. On aeration, the range of grilled and toasted fragrances appears. Once it has warmed slightly, they give way to minty and spicy notes, including ginger, cinnamon and anise. On the palate, it is very full, powerful and rich. The natural freshness of their wines maintains the perfect balance between strength and finesse that characterizes this exceptional vintage. The finish is fruity (dominated by cooked yellow fleshed fruits such as plum), generous and persistent.
This vintage is an excellent wine for drinking with meals. It is an ideal accompaniment for seafood bouillabaisse with Thai spices or pan-fried sea bass.
