Medium lemon colored with a watery sheen (12% ABV). The nose gives me classic Sur-lie aromas of brioche and yeast along with bruised pear, white blossom, orange peel and chamomile. The palate has a rounded mouthfeel of medium acidity and a medium (-) body. Flavors of citrus and brioche with pear and florals are evident. The finish is a touch astringent but has a saline twang as well. It carries on for a decent length. I think this $16 wine gets 86 points and 3 stars from me. Drink with seafood till 2024. Salut….
