Burnt marmalade in colour, extremely concentrated with contrasting sweet and bitter flavours, vanilla bean, white truffles and lemon curd patisserie against tart lime zest and passion fruit. Harvest took place with five passes through the vines from September 29 to October 24, in fairly easy successive waves, everything late ripening because of the Indian summer, with abundant noble rot (alhtough the national weather service was on strike, so they had to harvest without accurate previsions!). Excellent quality, needs time in a carafe to open up. François Amirault winemaker.
