Sensual nose, a festival of delicacies… Pine nuts, almond bits, slightly lemony marmalade, cane sugar, vanilla and thick vanilla yogurt; plenty of flowers too, lavish and captivating – jasmine, mimosa, broom shoots; then, honey and Bêtises de Cambrai boiled sweets, poached pear or approaching caramelised pear; white peach, also caramelised; and île flottante appears again. The vegetal component is sophisticated, not easy to describe – algal bloom mixed with citrus fruits, prickly pear, lemon leaves; a wonderful journey right from the first nose.
Full-bodied and elastic palate; the gourmet aspect is present; flan, île flottante, custard; this wine is very accessible; some characteristics of the whites of Châteauneuf or its surroundings can be noted; frankly, it is long, the palate is coated with a creamy texture, then the chilli becomes apparent, bird’s eye chilli even; we do not expect this sharp, incisive finish, like a slap at the end of the palate; again, this empyreumatic touch that adds spicy energy, a lot of white pepper… We have a wine that is both sensual and almost aggressive; a wine that is easy to drink, but also a wine within a wine; complex. Lay this one down for 3 or 4 years before serving it with salmon steak, Béarnaise sauce and gnocchi; or with fried chicken in sauce elevated with mustard or curry.
