Although a whiff of pear appears on the nose of this wine, it is on the palate that the full pear fruit shines. Its tartness brings freshness to the concentrated, dry and powerful body. The finish is appetizing and clean. ANNE KREBIEHL MW
Product Description:
Rich and full but still dry. The most discreet of all varieties in primary aromas, it enjoys the best aging potential. The bouquet is soft and supple, intense, characteristically open and expressive, with fully ripe fruit notes, apricot, greengage, licorice, a touch of buttery brioche, sesame seed, pistachio and fresh hazelnut. The wine fills the mouth and is well constructed, suave, velvety, soft and almost juicy, with a nice long aromatic finish.
