The Wine
'Envers de Valmur' : Back of Valmur (Grand Cru)
Swirling the glass gently releases the delicate scents of melon skin, citrus, and grapefruit, accompanied by a faint, briny ocean breeze. On the palate, it's flawless; light and refreshing with initial notes of citrus and grapefruit, which gradually give way to a 'slatey' mineral essence. This is complemented by a subtle, briny dryness that persists on the palate. A refreshing burst of citrus follows, balanced by a soft, creamy texture.
