Despite sustained fermentation, residual sugars can be found in this wine. Read more
Appearance
Pale yellow color
Aroma
Vin marqué par un nez de grande finesse et persistance aromatique. Malgré une maturité importante, le nez dégage une sensation de fraicheur et d’élégance typique de ce type de terroir.
Wine Fruity | Spicy
Taste
The palate combines elegance and firmness. Residual sugars do not add any heaviness; on the contrary, they help integrate the tannic structure. Great resistance to aeration.
