Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a luminous gold-straw color with impressive clarity. The nose is layered and elegant, with notes of citrus peel, white flowers, orchard fruit, hazelnut, subtle spice, and a delicate mineral edge. On the palate, the wine is poised and textured, balancing ripe fruit, creamy mid-palate weight, and a fine line of fresh acidity. The Premier Cru vineyard brings noticeable depth and tension, giving the wine excellent length and the ability to age gracefully over several years, often gaining even more complexity with time in bottle.
