"(. . . From 100% Ambonnay fruit.) Light, bright yellow, with a strong bead. Blood orange, pear, redcurrant and white flowers on the nose, plus a strong undercurrent of zesty minerals. Sweeter strawberry and raspberry flavors emerge on the palate, which is braced by tangy citrus and bitter quinine qualities. This is a real palate-stainer, finishing with excellent clarity and thrust, and a suave leesy note." Josh Raynolds, Vinous.com, Nov 2008 |
