2018 Alexandre Bain, La Levée, Vin de France
White
Ready - mature
Description
This 2.5h plot is located closest to the winery and has a complex clay, loam and sand topsoil before the vines’ roots hit the limestone. The cuvee undergoes 42 months of ageing, the longest of all cuvees. The nose is very complex and deep with aromas of apricot, rhubarb, quince and baked apples with a touch of cinnamon.
The palate has an underlining salinity, giving the wine great freshness and an extra dimension to the fresh tropical fruits and floral notes. It is very expansive on the mid-palate with a great acid structure. This wine is very giving and has an impressive balance, encapsulating huge complexity.
