Tasting note
The richness of our "Selection" vintage comes from the concentration of the grapes due to the benefits of noble rot. They save 20% overripe grapes to keep a touch of fresh grape in this sweet wine. The color is straw yellow, thick tears testify to the richness of the wine. The fruity aromas are dominant (grapefruit, peach, pineapple and quince jelly), the floral notes bring even more complexity (vine flower, hawthorn and linden).
