| Strength: | 13.5 % |
| Style: | Dry, Oaked |
| Size: | 750ml |
| Cellar Notes: | Incredible fruit flavours dominate this wine. Boillot avoids all insecticides and herbicides preferring to adopt all sustainable farming techniques in order to preserve the soil’s integrity. The vines are pruned to ensure lower yields and the fruit is harvested late so that maximum phelonic ripeness is achieved. |
| Appearance: | Clear gold. |
| Aromas: | A complete change occurs here in the aromatic spectrum as the nose is exotically spicy, pure and strikingly elegant. |
| Palate: | Peach, pear and apple-infused flavors that possess excellent mid-palate concentration and a beguiling texture on the complex, focused and explosive finish. Boillot has managed to infuse real style into his wines without the style dominating the underlying terroir. In a word, terrific. |
| Serving Notes: | This wine is a great match to shellfish in sauce, fish, foie gras and smelly cheeses. |
