Appearance:
Light gold.
Nose:
Slightly earthy with notes of toasted almonds, struck pebbles and popcorn.
Palate:
Fresh on entry. Lovely sweetness and loads of dry extract. The light tannic structure adds freshness and energy. Notes of butter and toasted sweetcorn.
A lovely finish with notes of grilled sesame and white-fleshed fruit.
Sommelier's advice:
Foie gras Crayfish,lobster Fish, poultry in sauces White meats Goat's cheese,blue cheese Spicy dishes and curry
De L’Orée proffers aromas of riper fruit with nuances of grilled maize and a touch of anise. The palate is generous and well balanced, finishing with the noble bitterness typical of the Grand Ermitage whites.
