This vineyard sits at 260-380 metres above sea level and has a chalk-marl clay soil. The wine shows a light lemon-yellow color. There are intriguing, medium-intensity aromas on the nose – thistle, roasted lemon, chalk, oatmeal, cardamom, marigold,
oil/clean wax – and a “bouillony,” almost marrow-like, note. A well-fitted palate is
dry and shows a medium-plus acidity, a medium extract, a soft yet tight and dense texture, a medium body, a good length and an impressive intensity of roasted lemon, oatmeal, thistle, marigold, cardamom, chalk and bouillon notes. It finishes with a medium-plus-to-long finish with an oily/tarry, pleasant aftertaste. Quite long-lasting on the palate. 2025-2028–IR
