The palate is silky, sweet, and beautifully lifted, opening with quince paste, ripe pear, and pineapple wrapped in a gentle botrytis glow. A mid‑palate of honeycomb, citrus oil, and white‑peach flesh keeps the wine both opulent and fresh, while the silex‑over‑limestone soils add a cool, mineral thread that prevents heaviness. The texture is lush but weightless, with sweetness balanced by Chenin’s natural acidity. The finish is long, elegant, and lightly spiced, tapering with candied citrus, stone dust, and a clean botrytis echo.
