Tasting notes

The nose is composed, at the same time, of strong and subtle hot brioche, fresh hazelnut, orange zest and candied “cédrat” (kind of lemon). The mouth is gentle at the attack and is followed by a lot of energy. The end of the mouth appears with delicacy, and mint and vanilla aromas.

Serve at 13°C in a splayed glass with paned scallops, or some pressed sheep cheese.
