Tasting notes :
An impressive aromatic expression of orange blossom, spice, wild herbs, and peach fruit. The palate is intense and sapid, pure and bright, with ripe peach notes, orange zest, and a touch of spice, underscored by a mineral core and superfine tannins. A wine with a long life ahead of it too.
Food matching ideas: A perfect pairing with white meat, herbed grilled fish, walnut and blue cheese pasta, lightly spiced curries.
