Jérémie's tasting notes
On the nose : Notes of raisins held together by a fine and fairly straightforward oakiness with a honeyed side in the background.
On the palate : the attack is soft, round, and smooth, releasing aromas of candied fruit, banana, and peach, along with notes reminiscent of toasted grains, followed by a fresh, herbaceous character. All of this is supported by a noticeable oak influence that doesn't overpower the profile. Slightly peppery, spicy notes and a touch of bitterness reminiscent of orange peel are also present.
The finish : Quite long with a pronounced peppery note and subtle woodiness.
