Spicy, aromatic on the palate with hints of fresh pear and peaches. The freshness, the mineral structure, the full-bodied richness all together form a perfect balance in taste. Long, clean aftertaste with nice barrel maturation notes.
Serve at 12°C on its own or with foie gras. Delicious with aromatic and spicy Asian cuisine and fresh fruit.
