Color : Beautiful golden colour with bright and brilliant highlights
Nose : The nose is rich and open. Notes of ripe apricot, of nectarine, of soft spices and a floral touch
Palate : Fleshy and full-bodied. The dense and fruity substance offers a touch of freshness at the end. A wine of character
Pairing : This wine has a fair and generous flesh that calls for tasty cuisine, simmered and worked such as : veal or fish blanquette / roasted sea bream fillet served with celery purée / trout tartare served with pieces of Granny Smith apple or with green lemon to bring a fresh contrast to this wine / a fresh goat cheese with a nice olive oil and black pepper (like « cervelle des canuts ») |
