"Le parfum de fruits jaunes mûrs (abricot, mirabelle) s’équilibre avec des notes d’agrumes roses (pomelo, orange sanguine) et une touche florale très délicate. La bouche est très droite, intense mais sans agressivité. La fraîcheur s’impose dans une matière tendue, cristalline, aux agréables notes citronnées qui titillent les papilles, tandis que des notes de thym viennent les souligner. Finale sur la minéralité et la tension. La promesse est tenue entre la gourmandise du nez et le côté énergique de la bouche."

Eng: "The scent of ripe yellow fruits (apricot, mirabelle plum) is balanced with notes of pink citrus (pomelo, blood orange) and a very delicate floral touch. The palate is very straightforward, intense but not aggressive. Freshness asserts itself in a taut, crystalline texture, with pleasant lemon notes that tantalize the taste buds, while notes of thyme underline them. Finish on minerality and tension. The promise is kept between the gourmandise of the nose and the energetic side of the palate."

Note on possible allergens: contains alcohol, sulfites, and residual sugar
