Tasting Note
Appearance :
deep, shiny gold. Sustained effervescence.
Nose :
initially, fresh aromas of wild strawberries which evolve towards blackcurrant. Blood orange and pink grapefruit then gradually emerge. Once it has been allowed to breathe, powerful notes of wild plums, liquorice, Sichuan pepper follow… an intense and concentrated sensation.
Palate :
a lively attack, both fruity and saline. Flavours of candied orange peel accompanied by ripe black fruits, are carried by a powerful structure. The finish is long, evolving towards cocoa powder and dried fruits. Pairings : with its abundant aromas of fruit and fresh spices, it will work particularly well with slightly spicy, slow-cooked dishes, such as shoulder of lamb confit with honey and sweet spices, or even red mullet fillet with a saffron cream.
Food Pairing
This sunny vintage has produced a wine combining density and power, held together by an energetic structure. Its illustration has been entrusted to the artist Gérard Titus-Carmel, on the theme “Momentum”.
