Notes From The Winemaker:
Rare Millésime 2006 is both oriental and fresh, mature and warm. Its almost paradoxical mineral and opulent tautness offers substantial potential for expression.
On the eye: Iridescent green gold
Bearing witness to a sun-filled year, Rare Millésime 2006 glows with an iridescent yellow-green gold. Delicate, dynamic bubbles glisten in this flaxen brilliance.
On the nose: Tropical and distinguished
Rare Millésime 2006 first offers a generous honeyed and oriental nose. The fragrances of crisp mango, cocoa, coffee, tropical fruits, lend the vintage a sophisticated vitality. The scent of jasmine tea paves the way for a gradually emerging minerality. Aromas of dried apricot and pink peony foreshadow a slightly vegetal structure, where vanilla, yellow kiwi and Oriental spices bloom.
On the palate: Infinitely rich and inviting
In the exceptionally long finish hints of mocha and cocoa confirm the fine Rare Millésime 2006 minerality.
Dried apricots, sweet spices, citron lime, accents of crisp honeyed pastries and Espelette pepper envelop the palate with an Oriental and smoky warmth. Testifying to its solar generosity, this depth underscores the wine’s taut freshness and foreshadows a magnificent longevity.
