Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Butter-poached lobster, scallops with herbs, roasted halibut, creamy seafood risotto, aged gruyere

Tasting Profile

Complex and mineral-driven with green apple, citrus, and stone fruit. The palate shows subtle oak, hazelnut, and mineral character with balanced acidity and a focused, persistent finish.
