Tasting notes
This wine presents a gorgeous golden yellow hue, hinting at the richness within. The nose is superbly complex and intense, revealing layers of elegant oak, acacia blossom, toasted almonds, and frangipane, followed by nuanced aromas of candied fruits, angelica, bergamot, almond, and freshly baked kugelhopf.
On the palate, it opens magnificently with remarkable roundness, depth, and a gentle sucrosity, beautifully balanced by fresh acidity. Flavours of yellow stone fruit, particularly mirabelle plum, mingle with hints of fresh herbs and rose petal, adding lift and complexity.
This is an exceptionally elegant and expressive wine, showcasing both concentration and finesse. The finish is long, refined, and marked by a subtle mineral note of flint, reinforcing its pedigree and aging potential.
