More about the tastingDisgorged 02/2023. There's a multilayered savouriness on the nose, with lemon balm and valerian mingling with the impact of large wooden barrels and spontaneous fermentation to bring almost curry-like notes. In the mouth there's a beautiful fullness thanks to the fine sweetness which gives volume to the palate. The mousse is fresh and at the same time remains discreet, bringing a refreshing Riesling piquancy in the finish.
