THE 2012 VINTAGE

Freezing cold and then scorching hot, the 2012 wine year was marked by a long winter, followed by a cool spring with little sunshine. After hail and torrential rain that lasted until the end of July, the heat in August miraculously saved the 2012 vintage. The harvest, small in quantity but of a rare and exceptional quality, makes this vintage one of the best of its century.

PAIRING & SERVING

This wine will pair perfectly with some pink duck breast or venison with a Grand Veneur sauce. Its structure will also complement slightly spicy Asian or Oriental dishes. Recommended serving temperature : 8 and 10°C. This wine has very good cellar-ageing potential.

L’ART DE LA DÉGUSTATION

Eyes:

a bright hue with coppery tints and fine bubbles.

Nose:

the finesse of the Chardonnay is combined with the structure and power of the Pinot Noir. Toasted notes of spices and vanilla reflect the partial vinification in oak barrels. On opening, the Chardonnay freshness and pear aromas cometh rough.

Palate:

L’attaque ample, toute en légèreté et en notes citronnées apporte tension et croquant, révélant un vin d’une belle verticalité. La persistance en finale est soutenue par une grande complexité et de beaux amers.
