After a mild winter, a dreary spring, a significantly
cool summer, the ominous and extremely rainy weather
became sunny, dry and almost cold, lasting throughout
the harvest.
TO THE EYE: PEARL PINK
Coppery, almost blue glints merge to give a soft hue
of pink quartz. As exquisite as the petals of old roses,
elegant bubbles dance in the glass.
ON THE NOSE: SPRINGLIKE AND COMPLEX
The initial nose offers a bouquet of spring flowers.
This fragrant elegance quickly increases in complexity
and texture. Notes of tangerine, lychee and verbena
alternate with hints of syrupy elderberry, of sweet
almonds. Freshly picked dark crisp fruit (blackcurrant,
blueberry, lingonberry), the nose is generous, heralding
a vintage with exceptional potential.
ON THE PALATE: SUBTLE AND MINERAL
Following an attack that is both elegant and generous,
the velvety texture unfurls to offer minerality and
subtlety. Initially, the exuberant vitality of dark fruits
and of citrus is followed by the vibrancy, smoky
notes and aromas of star anise and violets. Then the
triumphant delicacy expresses a hint of vanilla.
