The colour is straw yellow, almost crystalline; limpid; bright and brilliant. The first nose combines concentration, freshness, generosity and power. The second nose reveals a multitude of fruity, floral and vegetal scents. On the palate it reveals an aromatic palette of white and exotic fruits. One can even note a citrus side with lemon or grapefruit. Finally, one can detect pretty floral notes of accacia or hawthorn, or even rose. Guide Vert RVF : 95/100 : Bettane & Desseauve : 94/100
