  Appearance: Bright and clear, the wine is of light lemon colour, with wide watery rims and legs.
  Nose: Clean, with medium intensity aromas of citrus fruit of lemon, green fruit of green apple, stone fruit of peach, floral notes of acacia, mineral notes of stony, kernel notes of almond, oak notes of toast, herbaceous notes of hay. The wine is youthful.
  Palate: Dry with medium (+) acidity, the wine has medium alcohol and medium body, with medium (+) intensity flavours of citrus fruit of lemon, green fruit of green apple, mineral notes of stony, sweet spice of ginger, kernel notes of almond. The wine has a medium finish.
  Conclusion: Very good quality Corton Blanc with a reasonably intense nose showing decent complexity, the wine has good acidity, with elegance and well-balanced on the palate, having a fairly concentrated flavours with good length on the finish. It is still youthful and would benefit from further ageing of another 4-6 years.
