Sa robe est vive, d’un jaune or pâle aux reflets argentés. Dès le premier nez, les arômes de noisette grillée, de curry et d’immortelle se bousculent. Puis il s’ouvre sur de fines notes beurrées qui étoffent la dégustation. En bouche, l’opulence est sage, parfaitement maîtrisée et correctement balancée par l’acidité du terroir de la Haute Vallée ! L’amplitude de l’attaque laisse rapidement place à une finale plus vive, presque saline.
