This is a full bodied wine characterized by the aromas of fully ripe Pinot Gris grapes with fine smoky notes and a touch of vanilla from the barrel aging. Smooth and of captivating fullness and creaminess, with honey and oriental spices. On the palate with a powerful texture, aromas of ripe pear and candied citrus fruits. Powerful without dominating, with a very long, dry finish. Recommended with poultry smoked fish, mushroom dishes and cheese.
