Production Details Matured in a stainless-steel tank for 6–7 months. The vineyard was cultivated near-naturally with yield reduction and a late, selective hand harvest; the wine underwent spontaneous fermentation, prolonged maturation and artisanal élevage without fining agents.
Tasting Notes The producer describes crystal-clear golden-straw colour, candied citrus, aromatic herbs, delicate yellow and white flowers, pronounced minerality, purity and a balance of sweetness and fruit acidity. Yves Beck additionally noted lime, dried apricot, mirabelle, spice and a lively, lightly saline finish.
Food Pairing Dessert, aromatic cheeses, or served alone as an aperitif
Critics Ratings Yves Beck: 93–94/100 (2019 review)
