Food Pairing: |
The wine can match up to strongly flavoured food such a duck å l'orange and rich sauces, such as a walnut or hollandaise sauce, provided that it is not too lemony. It is particularly good with crayfish thermidor or smoked haddock in a creamy, saffron sauce. It is equally good with salmon (fresh or smoked), scallops, crab and with fish, seafood or corn chowders enriched with egg yolk and cream. If you're feeling extravagant, try the wondrous combination of a fresh crab or lobster risotto topped with truffle shavings.

Tasting Notes: |
Ripe pineapple, melon and orange blossom flavours dominate on the nose and is supported by hints of lemon rind and dried apricots. Flavours of white peach, cashew nuts and caramel linger on the palate. The wine has a brilliant linear acidity and dominant dense core with layered sweetness due to the natural fermentation component. The roundness on the palate and a beautifully integrated texture of the oak flavours are supported by a creamt finish that coats your mouth and make you want to spend more time in the presence of this big and balanced wine
