In a few words ...

The estate's intermediate white cuvée, between the cuvée château and the extremely rare chapelle, "baron g." is a true gourmet wine that benefits from a few years' ageing. It is one of the finest expressions of the rolle grape, usefully complemented by a touch of chardonnay. this 2012 is simply magnificent: pale gold color with green highlights, powerful, complex nose (notes of cedar and bergamot, lightly toasted oak, honey), racy palate with lovely substance, on flavors of broom and grapefruit, lively finish with lovely saline sapidity. 95% rolle, 5% chardonnay. Average age of 30 years. Poudingue soil: Pliocene pebbles and very light-colored sand crossed by a few clay veins. Altitude 250-300m. Aged 10 months in barrel. Drink now or within two years.

Tasting notes

Appearance

Grey gold with green highlights.

Aroma

Nez très puissant, d’une grande complexité à dominante fruitée (agrumes et groseilles grappes). Des notes de noisettes grillées soulignent un boisé discret et élégant.

Wine Fruity | Roasted

Taste

Freshness and powerful fatness. Powerful fruity (pear) and floral (alysses) aromas reveal a very broad complexity. Perfectly balanced, with exceptional length and notes of lemon.
