The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a juicy/acidulous frame, finesse, a beautiful definition. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy/fresh quince, lemon, small notes of juicy flat peach associated with touches of green apple as well as fine hints of lychee/quenette, apple flowers, a subtle hint of rose and very discreet hints of fresh verbena/butter (in the background). Good length. A subtle tannic sensation.
