This tightly structured and boldly flavoured wine was picked very ripe to capture Buerre Bosc pear and golden, yellow-fleshed quince aromas and mouth feel. A small proportion of the juice was fermented and aged in older oak barriques to fill out the mid-palate and add a nuance of complexity. Made in a bone-dry style (less than 1g/l residual sugar) it is a delicious match for creamy soups and white meat dishes. With appropriate cellaring it should provide excellent drinking from 2023 to 2030.
