Our Review of the Cuvée
From the very first glance, this wine captures the eye with its golden, slightly hazy hue. On the nose, an explosion of intense notes of dried orange peel, chestnut honey, and a subtle hint of nail polish evokes a natural and expressive character. With aeration, aromas of dried apricot emerge. On the palate, the attack is dynamic, underscored by a lively tension. The texture is both dense and silky, enveloping the palate in smoothness. The crisp acidity extends into a memorable finish where bitter orange, cinchona, and spices unfold, leaving a delicious lingering aftertaste.
