In the glass
Aroma: walnut oil, brioche, tea, apple compote, sesame, eucalyptus
Palate: citrus, minerals, cream
Deep yellow and glossy with a fine creamy mousse. With almost no dosage the acidity is exposed, Chardonnay giving body and Pinot Noir a velvet grip; the house calls it a stylistic speciality that sits close to a still wine.
What it pairs with
-
Oysters
Near zero dosage and high acidity meet the brine exactly. -
Sashimi
Nothing in the wine is sweet enough to fight raw fish. -
Aged hard cheese
Three years and more on the lees give the depth for a salty cheese.
