Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
I find it very unusual, very grassy and sour, almost on sauce béarnaise at first (tarragon, chervil, shallot, butter) but the expected hessian, tar and just seawater are soon to take over. Now some kind of curry-mayonnaise-y notes remain there while crabs and langoustines are approaching too. I love this, a lot of action and difference. The salt of life
restaurant Palate

timer Finish
medium to long, always with this funny smoky mustard. Shallots in the aftertaste. Quite
