It's rather mineral on the nose : limestone, crushed oyster shells and there is a hint of lemon and some whiter flower. The palate is very well balanced. There is a strong acid backbone, some sitckyness/thickness on the sides. Some nice lemony notes carry on throughout the whole palate end during a fresh and almost flowery finish. Fresh, fun, not fancy but very fine.

Very mineral nose with chalk and lemon. Rather discreet. The palate is wonderful with a strong acid backbone, some lemon around and a texture, a thickness that has a kind of weight and grip on the sides that makes this wine both long and wide. Very impressive in terms of presence. Long finish with herbs and lemon. Very good !
