Same vinification as Sous Curon except fermentation in tank at temperature below 22 Celsius by cooling coils. Lifted aromatics of tangerine, dried pear, lemon zest, mushroom and crushed stone, lemon rind. Searing acidity 13% abv long finish.

Beautiful reduction, the '14's are really shining for Tournelle, great to see.

Flint, limestone and lemon juice. Razor sharp acidity that lingers in the mouth.
