Tasting notes
Pale bright yellow. Musky leesy complexity to the aromas of white peach and saline minerality. A step up in personality and mineral pungency from the Vireuils, with its element of fruit sweetness buttressed by a rocky quality. Flavors of citrus fruits, white peach and minerals carry through a long, spicy, gripping finish, which shows noteworthy calcaire lift.

He has more than 1 ha; his biggest holding. Only four owners of this lieu-dit. Vines really suffered in 2016. Tank sample. Almost soft and white peachy on the nose. Good tension on the palate and some citrus but no matchstick and already accessible. Long and surprisingly open. (JR)
