Tasting Notes
COLOR:
Pale gold with greenish highlights.
NOSE:
The nose is beautifully aromatic, offering a bouquet of citrus fruits like lemon and grapefruit, along with green apple, pear, and hints of white peach. Floral notes such as acacia and elderflower are present, along with underlying nuances of wet stone, flint, and a touch of hazelnut from subtle oak influence.
TASTE:
On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, with a silky texture balanced by lively acidity. Flavors of lemon zest, green apple, and white peach are interwoven with a pronounced minerality that gives the wine structure and depth. There are hints of toasted almond, light butter, and a delicate touch of spice from oak aging, though the oak is perfectly integrated, allowing the purity of the fruit to shine.
FINISH:
The finish is long, clean, and precise, with lingering citrus, white flowers, and a chalky minerality that adds to its elegance.
Food Pairing
This refined white Burgundy pairs beautifully with delicate and flavorful dishes that enhance its minerality and fresh fruit profile. Ideal pairings include:
Seafood:
Grilled or seared scallops, lobster with butter sauce, or white fish like sole or halibut.
Poultry:
Roast chicken with lemon and herbs, or turkey breast with a light cream sauce.
Vegetarian dishes:
Creamy risotto, roasted vegetables, or butternut squash gratin.
Cheese:
Soft cheeses like Brie, Chaource, or goat cheese, as well as aged Comté.
Salads:
Light salads with citrus vinaigrette, or salads featuring apples, walnuts, and mild cheeses.
