Pale golden in colour with intense straw-yellow reflections. The nose is rich and expressive, revealing the distinctive character of noble botrytis through aromas of dried fruits, dried mushrooms and delicate herbal notes.

The palate is supported by lively acidity, which brings perfect balance to its medium sweetness. Mature, full-bodied and beautifully complex, the wine offers layers of roasted nuts, honey and subtle vanilla oak, all intertwined with the elegant character of botrytis. The long, multi-layered finish unfolds gradually, revealing wave after wave of dried fruit flavours that linger gracefully on the palate.

Food Pairing

An excellent companion to:

• mature blue cheeses such as Roquefort, Bleu d’Auvergne, Gorgonzola Piccante or Stilton;
• ripe soft-ripened cheeses, including Camembert, Brie and Saint-Marcellin;
• a pâté of braised beef cheek and foie gras enriched with pistachios;
• Moroccan tagine with dried apricots and almonds.
