Tasting Notes
Sweet white blossoms take the lead on the perfume, which is relentlessly focused and intricate as it opens. Lemon peel, winter melon, white nectarine, and chalk gently peak out. The palate is bone dry, and is expectedly mouth-watering, with a lean, light body and mineral presence.
Winemaking
Fermented in stainless steel at 55F. No Malolactic. Gassed weekly to preserve freshness
Food Pairing
Pair with rich food the wine can “cut” through: Grilled lobster, croque Madame, and young cheeses.
