Tasting Notes
COLOR: limpid golden color.
AROMAS: well ripened notes of stewed fruit and jam. A combination of fruity and spicy aromas, recalling mango, quince, cumin, iodized salt and herbal teas such as verbena and chamomile.
PALATE: harmonious mellow, sweetness, acidity and lively, evoking pear. Good length, underscored by impressive aromatic complexity.
Food pairing
Lively and full bodied, this Pinot gris works well with fish served with a sauce or smocked fish, lobster or scallops (sea scallops with hot chili pepper). It's a splendid match for foie gras., it can accompany white meat (chicken with pineapple). Delicious with cheese such as munster.
