Gault&Millau's review 2026

A beautiful, intense golden color, followed by a complex and expressive nose blending acacia honey, jasmine, mirabelle plum, pineapple, and sandalwood. The palate is generous and enveloping, striking a balance between sweetness and freshness. The aromatic profile remains robust, featuring candied fruit, clementine, pepper, and white truffle, which lends elegance. A hint of saltiness underpins a rich and lively finish. This is a wine that will age beautifully for many years to come.
