Wine of France Les Contours de Mairlant 2018

- 91 points -

Vivid straw color. High-pitched citrus, orchard fruit and floral scents pick up deeper pineapple and marzipan nuances with air. Rich yet lively in style, showing sharp definition to its juicy tangerine and pear nectar flavors. Finishes long and subtly sweet, with resonating citrus fruit character and a subtle touch of honeysuckle. I would have guessed that there was Viognier in here, and not a small amount of it.
