Pale gold with a fine, persistent bead. Complex nose with intense notes of sea spray and shucked oysters, brioche and truffle. Richly layered palate with flavours of caramelised pears, truffled honey and roasted hazelnuts.
Conditions
2010 produced high quality fruit and low yields. Small bunches and small berries gave us fruit of intensity and power, resulting in an outstanding wine.
The Wine
Pale gold in colour with a fine, persistent bead. A complex nose with intense notes of preserved lemon, seaspray and freshly shucked oyster with underlying notes of poached strawberries, brioche, and truffles. The richly layered palate with flavours of caramelised pear, truffled honey and roasted hazelnuts, creates a luxurious wine.
Perfect as an aperitif, or enjoy with truffle infused scrambled eggs and lobster on toasted brioche.
