2018 vintage
Hard vintage for the white wines
- twist and plot
- non stop rain for months with many attack of mildew
- dry summer, hottest than the 2016
–> always in the tough years that the best producers maker their best wines
Let’s taste it
- combines finesse and concentration with an exceptional length
- citrus, flowers, lemon curd and honeysuckle notes
- balanced between the acidity of the citrus and the roundness of honey
- drink it now or hold it, i would recommand to wait a bit, to 2030
