Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

starts very fruity and only marginally smoky, while the briny side’s well there. Some pears and gooseberries, plus plenty of sea air, seawater, seaweed, floated wood… Well, anything from the sea. The whole’s perhaps not utterly complex, but it’s very fresh and easy. Should go well on oysters

restaurant Palate

there are very discreet touches of lavender or rather violet sweets that may hint at the 1980s, but they’re soon to be offset by a very salty and briny rush/ Like eating oysters indeed, with drops of Tabasco and lemon juice. The whole is very, very coastal. Little oak influence

timer Finish

long, very salty. You just had a dozen oysters without even noticing
