WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
The robe is lemon yellow with green reflections, of good intensity. The disc is shiny, limpid and transparent. The wine presents youth. The nose is frank, pleasant, of good intensity. We smell a dominant scent of citrus fruits, lemon, white flowers and a fine underlying smoky touch. Aeration amplifies these odors and reveals lemon zest, fine vegetal, lemongrass and a pronounced mineral register of gas. The excellent quality of the raw material exalts a distinguished profile, marked by the terroir. The attack on the palate is slender, the alcohol support balanced. We find the range of aromas of the nose, focused on citrus fruits, lemon zest, lemon, fine vegetal, lemongrass, white flowers and always, implicitly, this smoky mineral register. We feel a hint of bitterness. The finish has a good length, as well as a frank vivacity and a fine persistent bitterness. The balance is tense, incisive. The range of noble, racy aromas marks a beautiful mineral definition.
TASTING NOTES:
Fresh Asian pear, white peach, acacia honey and lemon aromas. It’s bright, dry and medium-bodied with floral and mineral elements. Minerally and pristine finish. Always has 30% grand cru fruit. Drink now.

This wine is all business on the nose, with stony aromas and a spritz of lemon. The palate is similarly focused and driven. Lemon-lime acidity drives taut minerality in this light-bodied sip. The finish is long and saline, with tangy Granny Smith notes giving it some lift. Pair with creamy cheeses for a refreshing palate-cleanse.
