Domaine Lecomte – Vieilles Vignes 2021 – Quincy

The wine has a pale lemon-yellow color. The nose is fragrant, deep and complex. It expresses notes of fresh lemon, blood orange, candied lemon peel, juicy yellow peach, ripe apricot, a sweet touch of quince jam and vanilla (in the background), associated with floral aromas (fresh lime blossom, acacia), herbaceous notes (cut rosemary, peppermint), a hint of honey, as well as a saline mineral touch in the background. On the palate, the wine is chiseled and fresh and offers a certain concentration. It expresses the lively and tangy notes of fresh citrus fruits (yellow and especially – lime, freshly grated lime zest), green apple, Reine Claude plum, tangy white nectarine, as well as apple blossom, acacia and peppermint in the background. The finish is mineral, saline, slightly iodised, slightly bitter, fresh and quite persistent. A wine with energy, lively acidity and good persistence.
