Owner's words
The wine reveals aromas of pears, citrus, and roasted notes of Botrytis. Taut and fresh, it reveals an energy and liveliness characteristic of the Barsac terroir. The elegant bitterness and beautiful freshness perfectly balance the sweetness of this 2024 vintage. The finish is long with lovely notes of candied lemons.
