Nose: The nose, the result of a beautiful maturity, is divided between orange peel and mirabelle plum on a mineral background. When aired, the notes of graphite and oyster shells largely dominate.
Mouth: Supple in the attack, the palate is fresh without lacking in roundness. Citrus fruits are confirmed in a full and intense mouth, to which a beautiful iodine finish brings persistence.
