Lots of dried apples, pears, honey and honeysuckle. Some lilacs and dried lemons. Full-bodied with a creamy texture and lots of dried fruit, as well as candied lemon skins. Lightly waxy. So fascinating and delicious. Dense and flavorful yet agile and energetic. Mostly sauvignon blanc and sauvignon gris with mauzac rose and verdanelle. Made with indigenous yeast, barrel-fermented and aged. From the terroir-specialist, Bourguignon. From biodynamically grown grapes.
