Tasting Notes

Colour

light gold

air Nose

this one is a very waxy one, meaning that we have all kinds of waxes, esp. beeswax but also linseed and lamp oil. After that, an avalanche of citrus and grass, blending tangerines with cut grass and even an agavy touch. Some damp earth too, wee touches of manure, a little leather…

restaurant Palate

fab! Very full, lemony and citrony, with a touch of salt and this very specific minerality that I always link to the greatest Alsatian Rieslings. Indeed it’s also slightly petroly. Superb

timer Finish

long, spicier and grassier, which concludes everything in a perfect manner. Always quite some citrus in the aftertaste, as well as quite a lot of pepper
