Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
a bag of 25 kilograms of lemon drops. The question is, do we enjoy lemon drops? We sure do. Also lemon tarte, limoncello, and these wonderful citrons with their very thick skins. So, the profile is narrow, but it is totally perfect, in my opinion. Indeed, you could think of a great chenin blanc too. With water: myriads of tiny mineral aromas, chalk, flints, cement, some hessian too, all that over this bright, almost luminous lemonness
restaurant Palate
good, imagine ¾ chenin blanc (say Savennières) and ¼ manzanilla. Add a little chalk and a little grass (or leaves) and there, you have it. Isn't life wonderful when it's simple? With water: more of all that. Yellow jelly beans (or crocodiles, or babies, or bears…)
timer Finish
medium, a tad fatter but extraordinarily pure and still vertical. Say rather chenin 'moelleux' in the aftertaste. Some waxy fatness in the aftertaste
