Description
The 2020 vintage is a unique vintage. It is marked by historic precocity from budburst, with an advance of 3 weeks, until the harvest which took place entirely in the month of August. High temperatures associated with a lack of precipitation cause a significant water deficit as well as evapotranspiration phenomena in July and August. The absence of rain, on the other hand, allows the health of the grapes to be very satisfactory. The particular conditions of this vintage generate wonderful balances. Blend of selected plots on both sides of the Serein.
Tasting note: Nose of peach, granny apple and lemony scents which lingers in the mouth with nice minerality, a bouquet of freshness and most often iodized notes.
Food pairings: Ideal with terrines of fish and warm oysters.
