    "Very elegant attack, well-structured mid-palate, long, persistent, very candied lemon, the finish lacks a little character, very Barsac."

    Tasting notes

    Appearance

    The robe can vary over the entire range of colors from pale gold to coppery gold through straw yellow.

    Aroma

    In the main aromatic field of soft and sweet Bordeaux we find the flower, the fresh fruits, the exotic fruits but also spicy notes and empireumatiques (wood, cinnamon, vanilla ...).

    Wine Floral | Soft | Spicy

    Taste

    The sweet white young are delicious, they are slightly jammy but still retain acidity. With age they evolve on more concentrated aromas, such as the bitter orange confit and small notes of salted butter caramel.

    Wine Aromatic | Smoked | Tender
