Visual aspect: persistent string, deep pale yellow and gold colour with clear straw yellow tinges. Fine and vivid bubbles. Quite fluid and deep. Nose: aniseed, fat chalk, green apple, iodine. Palate: pure and vivid, enhanced by some bitterness and a salty character. Lemony acidity and good tension. A certain chew. Fresh and tonic finish. Match with food: John Dory beggar's purse and finely chopped leeks in cream. Comments: a tense and powerful wine.
