| TASTING NOTE: This wine was grown in gravelly soil on bush vines aged 20-35 years and harvested by hand. Its complex aromas are of spring flowers, lanolin and savoury herbs along with green apple and yellow pear, while the clean, crisp palate evokes ripe tree fruit, sweet spices and chalky minerality. It'll pair gorgeously with lake trout and rösti served with Gruyère and sour cream. (Vintages panel, Oct. 2018) |
