Monday, November 20, 2023 - Lot 13/2 No 3 Disgorged 03/2018

First impressions against memory from having Les Roises from the same release the night before - more notable oak influence, less of the rich nougat note, a distinctive struck match nuance and higher acidity.

Expressive nose with wafts of green apple, pear and lemon. A real smoky touch. Layers of struck flint, toast, brioche and hazelnut. Huge palate intensity and persistence. Very vibrant. So delicious.


WSET notes:

Pale gold. Fine mousse.

Pronounced on the nose with green apple, pear, lemon, toast, smoke, struck flint, chalk, biscuit, brioche, hazelnut. Developing.

Pronounced and dry on the palate. High acidity, light body, medium alcohol, long finish.

Can drink now but has potential for aging.
