Funkyness: Mild

Tasting Notes: Pale ruby red, with reflections between pink and orange. The nose offers a pleasant fruity bouquet, among which emerge notes of ripe cherry, rose petals, flowers and orange peel, spices, mushrooms and wet stone. On the palate, all elements are in proportion, with a linear, fruity sip and calibrated acidity.

Funkyness: Mild

Tasting Notes: Rather long maceration which gives the wine a rather onion skin colour. The nose as well as the mouth are marked by notes of fresh and cooked fruits. Important mouthfeel: round, tannic. But the finish does not allow us to fall asleep because it is invigorating: superb acidity. Dense and lingering finish with bitter orange, ginger and a return of freshness.

Tasting Notes: The dress is golden, brilliant. The nose is expressive, on white fruits roasted with butter, marzipan and spices. The palate is quite fascinating, as much by its dynamics as its texture: it goes (very) straight, without resorting to acidity. The famous "invisible thread" is at work. And at the same time, one gets acquainted with a very soft matter, with a soft touch, in a very Meyer style airy spirit. The whole thing is dazzlingly fresh, overwhelming, even. The finish is just as fresh, finely chewed, with the return of white fruits roasted in butter, embellished with spices that linger for a long time.
