This wine showcases an enticing bouquet of orange oil, pine nuts, orange peel, and bruised apple, enriched by the sweet creaminess of zefir and rich notes of uzvar, with a touch of spices and dried herbs. Toasted notes add depth. Super fresh, it feels youthful and vibrant, almost as voluminous as the 2004 disgorgement but with added freshness and elegance. The palate reveals hints of Duchesse citro, enhancing its sophisticated charm. Overall, it's great stuff and achieves an impressive evolution in the glass.
