Profound
Pale gold in colour, limpid and brilliant with luminous golden reflections.
Initially subtle and discreet on the nose with light spices (vanilla, liquorice).
After aeration, aromas of ripe fruit (pear, lychees) appear.
Full in the mouth, we find a beautiful aromatic richness with a mouth-watering sweetness.
Gentle lemony notes bring freshness and provide an elegant balance.
Nice length on the finish brought by light spicy, peppery notes.
A complete and elegant wine.
Food and wine pairings: Foie gras, bouchées à la reine, roast poultry with spices, cheese platter and even for dessert with a Paris-Brest.
