Ageing
9 months in a 500-liter French oak barrel, followed by 6 months in bottle.
Notes
Yellow colour with golden nuances resulting from barrel fermentation.
The aroma reveals floral and citrus notes, with hints of almond, light pineapple, and a subtle touch of fresh peach, while on the retronasal, floral notes of orange blossom and lemon tree stand out.
The complexity is completed by a clear minerality, accompanied by a subtle hint of vanilla.
On the palate, it is dry, vibrant, and crisp, with a well-defined acidity. Ripe plum and white chocolate are accompanied by a remarkable freshness of lime and peach, all wrapped in a subtle hint of vanilla that gives it volume and texture.
Enveloping, it reveals a creaminess that gives it a smooth and long finish.
Maturity
15 years
Food pairing
Its structure and complexity allow for a wide range of pairings with fish and various meats.
It is also well-suited to various cheeses, particularly strong or intensely flavoured styles. Serve between 12ºC and 14ºC.
