Clos Valis Terres Cachées (White)
More from this producer: Clos Valis
2023
Lime yellow. Honeyed. floral, white lemon aromas. On the palate very pretty lemon drop and almost a hint of residual sugar. Heavy and solar. There is clearly some concentration and an attempt at making more than just a crunchy acidity bomb, featuring very elegant, well-managed acidity matching the more honeyed fruit, but lacking a little in complexity and personality.
