Pale in colour with aromas of white flowers, ripe quince, pear and lime, as well as complex smokey and slightly oxidative notes. The palate is energetic and vibrant with a beautiful texture, notes of ripe green apple and stone fruits. The minerality of ‘Pierres Blanches’ terroir (limestone) shows on the finish as well as a certain saltiness and savouriness calling for more.
