The 2023 Triolet opens with a vibrant bouquet of ripe citrus, melon, passionfruit, and guava,  lifted by delicate hints of fennel. Classic coastal notes of brine and sea spray bring a refreshing edge, adding aromatic complexity. The palate is concentrated, layered, and persistent. Flavours span a spectrum from citrus, pink grapefruit, and green apple through to passionfruit and gooseberry, without expressing anything overtly ripe. Subtle, savoury, nutty notes and lees-derived richness add depth and elegance. Barrel fermentation with a portion of solids, combined with carefully extracted phenolics from the press, has given this wine a fine, pithy texture. This structural component from well-handled phenolic extraction not only enhances food compatibility but also promises excellent potential for cellar maturation.

65% Sauvignon Blanc, 23% Semillon, 12% Muscadelle.
