Tasting notes
Expressive floral aromas then rich, ripe apricot fruit and toasty oak on the palate. Powerful and weighty with roundness and texture from the oak and a long finish.
Food match
This wine as weight and power making it an excellent match for stronger fish dishes such as salmon or monkfish. Will also work well with soft cheeses such as Saint-Marcellin and Chaource.
