The wine maintains its familiar charm, albeit with slightly less allure. It still offers a delightful bouquet reminiscent of red apple skin, hints of red flowers, and the subtle crunch of crushed apple seeds, accompanied by bakery notes. While it retains its characteristic freshness, complexity, and delicate nature, it may feel a touch thinner on this occasion.
This wine presents an intriguing and refined bouquet, combining the scents of red apple skin, rose petals, buttered croissant, and crushed apple seeds. Its racy and mineral palate and lengthy cider-like finish make it an ideal choice for starting an evening, showcasing its complexity, delicacy and sophistication.
