Note di degustazione
Pale green color. Pure, high-pitched aromas of lime, white flowers and ginger. Denser and riper than the Caillerets without any loss of juiciness. This has the tactile mouthfeel to handle its firm acids. The lemon, lime and mineral flavors are lifted by a floral topnote. A very pure, vibrant, subtle wine, finishing with very good cut to its flavors of lemon, crushed stone and spices. I'm more confident that this has the material to improve with four or five years of bottle aging than I am about the Caillerets, but Fontaine insists that the Caillerets is riper. This cuvee was 11.7% potential alcohol chaptalized to 12.8%.

Knockout nose combines lemon drop, lime peel, white flowers and crushed stone. Densely packed but perfumed and light on its feet, with superb lift to the flavors of citrus fruits and minerals. Wonderfully balanced, vibrant wine with a racy brightness and a sappy finish that really saturates the palate. This was just 11.8% potential alcohol, chaptalized to 12.8%. Exhilarating premier cru in the making.
