Appearance: Crystal-clear, brilliant Nose: The nose is intense, combining soya sauce with fermented notes and a hint of cocoa. Palate: The attack is smooth and sweet, opening into a full-bodied mid-palate with umami accents, enhanced by tangy yellow fruits and earthy notes. The texture is dense and the balance between acidity and sweetness is well maintained, despite a certain liveliness from the alcohol. The long finish carries notes of almond and coffee, with a slight astringency. Overall impression: A powerful yet elegant wine, where fermented and umami notes harmonise with a fruity sweetness, offering lovely length.
