Tasting notes
-
In light golden yellow this Pinot Gris Mambourg embodies the opulence of the gold autumn of the year 2018: in the smell excessively and fruity, it reminds of ripe quinces and pineapple, juicy apricots and aromatic foliage, as well as lemon peel, hazelnuts and a touch of broom flourish.
In the palate as well full-aromatic this drop seduces with a lot of extract, a dynamically racy body, meanwhile the fine ripe sweetness match very well with the delicate fruity acid. Completes with a long spicy aftertaste this wine probably belongs to the best what this vintage can offer!
