Saturday, January 20, 2018 - A private lunch (Restaurant Tribeca **, Heeze, NL): A pretty rare wine - only 3% of production at this 38ha Domaine is white. It is a blend of 60% Clairette, roughly equal parts of Ugni Blanc and Bourboulenc, and a little (3%) Marsanne. Clay and limestone soils, aged for 8-10 months in small oak barrels. Complex nose with subtle aromas of fennel, bergamot, white peach, flower honey and smoky minerals, good depth; soft but fresh palate, mineral and silky and rounded, beautifully balanced, zesty bitters, citrus flavours (meyer lemon, orange, lime); light finish, very good length.
