Aroma: walnut, dried fruit, candied fruit, marc

Palate: walnut, dried fruit

Biodynamic Savagnin off blue Lias marl cropped at 15 hl per hectare and held seven years under the veil. La Pinte records a golden robe, a very complex nose of walnut and candied fruit lifted by a note of marc, and a palate surprising in its power and aromatic persistence.
