SOLE
ORIGIN OF STAINED GLASS LABEL :
Eglise St Stephen le Martyr
Omaha – USA.
COMMENTARY :
A complex, expressive, and powerful nose with hints of pineapple, white flowers, especially jasmine, and notes of Pear Williams and blood orange. The palate is incredibly supple with a touch of Umami… The wine becomes expansive, round, and highly savory on the palate, with an impressively digestible quality that draws an irresistible little smile from you… A long, elegant, saline finish is carried by beautiful hints of bitterness with notes of green almonds and citrus. To be enjoyed today and for many years to come.
