My first taste of the 2014 vintage. Straw gold in the glass. Dried pome and an almost Chenin-like hay on the nose. Medium plus acidity leads a surprisingly full mouthfeel and palate of baked quince and hay grass. Longish finish for this appellation (that'd be medium, generally). Not a complicated wine, but more complex than one would expect. I like this vintage.

Очень интересный и гастрономичный образец. Неароматный и минеральный, в меру хрустящий

Odors of lettuce and funky diaper. Not for everyone.

Unusually acidic and slightly bitter. Deep straw color and long legs. Pass on this one.
