100/100 HACHETTE WINE GUIDE "The 2016 has moved beyond the pastry notes of its youth to focus on flavors of citron and mandarin. Its power is confidently established in a pure fruit character, nourished by a luscious liqueur, which lends a masterful balance to this vintage, which is also at its peak. "

Harvested in four passes through the vineyards, from September 27th to November 4th.

Residual sugar: 135 g/L
