Fermented in 350-litre oak. West of the village. Barrel sample.
Spicy, creamy depth here, a pure chalky citrus nose and a hint of clementine. On the palate a richness and fulness in the mouth though the acidity cuts through the middle like a knife. So juicy and tense and excitable. Long, precise, clean-cut after the openness of the nose. Incredibly fresh but balanced. Perhaps just a little more austere on the palate than I expected. (JH)
