(30% clairette, 30% bourboulenc, 25% roussanne, 14% picpoul and 1% picardin, aged in a combination of stainless steel and used barriques): Green-tinged yellow. Apple and orange zest aromas are complemented by suggestions of jasmine and anise. At once opulent and focused, with sappy orchard fruit and floral flavors lifted by a tangy citrus zest nuance. The taut, linear finish repeats the citrus note and clings with very good authority.
