Description
Tasting notes
Nose : Both heady and silky. The initial nose has plenty of character and drifts from exotic fruit (mango and pineapple) to more classical fruity notes (melon and apricot), together with beeswax and vanilla undertones. The fruity dimension gradually takes on redder tones of redcurrants and raspberries. Then noble spices (cardamom), more tertiary (lichen) and roasted (tea) notes waft in to enhance this olfactory masterpiece.
Appearance : burnished gold with copper tinges.
Palate : lively, clean. Cuts right through the nose, wiping out all the elements of the aromatic palette. Herein begins a completely new tasting. Peeled fruits such as guava and nectarines flood the palate with their sweet juices. The red fruits have acquired a jammy flavour and blackcurrant jelly hits in at the last minute.
Overall : balanced, precise. Ample, it opens with notes of distant horizons and gives us an intense moment of pleasure while contemplating its bucolic landscape. Its sublimely fresh scent has intense notes of lime blossom. The retronasal olfaction is delicately woody, spicy (black pepper) and chocolatey. The empty glass reflects the firmness and minerality of the initial nose.
