Tasting notes :
- A nice straw yellow with gold reflections.
- An intense well-developed and complex nose of over-ripening which develops many perfumes : honey, overripe seed fruits ( pear, quince) , as well as more subtle notes of white flowers.
- On the palate, after a silky entry, it’s a blossoming of complex aromas supported by a good body perfectly balanced by a nice mature acidity which adds length and brings character .
The balance of this rich and complex Pinot Gris is so good that it is a perfect gastronomic wine !
