Les Vignobles Alain Maurel
Visual aspect: golden yellow, brilliant. Nose: very expressive, white flowers, spring cherry tree, brings to mind viognier, honeysuckle, old rose, hints of menthol. Palate: lively, acidulous, slightly gaseous, pink grapefruit, blood orange, finish with hints of Granny Smith. Match with food: white meat in cream with a trace of vanilla, boudin blanc truffé (white pork sausage with truffles). Comments: a North/South encounter. Lay down to check the development and harmonisation of the opposed vine varieties.
