The Treasure of Valmy 50 cl
69,00€
Rivesaltes Hors d’Age
Dense yellow color with brown reflections.
A bit of intuition, a touch of certainty, a handful of audacity, a little luck and a sea of patience!
On the nose, the treasure is a concentrate of aromas as varied as bewitching as candied citrus peel, acacia flowers, dried fig, undergrowth.
In mouth, volume and aromatic power.
At the table this exceptional wine can find its place by putting a trilogy of foie gras with candied onions for example.
A true call to relaxation, this wine can be served with a few dry cakes during a gourmet four-hour meal with the scent of travel and escape.
To be served chilled at 10-12°C with a semi-cooked Foie gras for a soft harmony, blue cheeses for a subtle sweet-salty harmony, fruit salad and sorbets for a fresh touch, the rousquille and the crunchy St Paul with Catalan accents of course, or as an after-dinner drink, its favourite domain!
