Tasting notes

Colour: bright gold.
Nose: the bouquet has mocha aromas, warm cookies and vanilla with a hint of menthol
Palate: in the mouth it is both powerful and taut. The praline notes are revealed and there is a slight woodiness. It supports the complexity and great richness of this wine.

Food and wine pairing

This great wine has incredible balance and complexity and should be served with delicate, rich dishes. It is ideal with pan-fried veal with forest mushrooms, fillet of perch with beurre blanc or foie gras with brioche. It is also excellent with shellfish, sole fillet with a cream sauce, pan-fried scallops, chicken liver pâté, rabbit terrine and for cheese, it marries well with Roquefort

Serving suggestions

Serve at 12-14°C.

Ageing potential

This wine can be drunk young with its primary aromas and will also age very well in a cellar for the next 8 to 10 years.
