Presentation
Diane Muscadelle is a 'tender', slightly sweet wine, surprising and ultra-contemporary. An atypical creation, its nose is marked by delicate notes of flowers (honeysuckle, rose, violet) and candied orange zest. The palate is aromatic, with a slight tension that brings freshness. This is a gourmet wine with character, the ideal companion for exotic dishes. Sushi evenings will be its favourite playground.
The vintage
2022 was a particularly atypical year due to extreme weather conditions. ln addition to a very early frost in the spring, which affected the vineyard just as the vines were starting to bud, there was a long period of exceptional drought from May until the end of September. The result was low yields and a perfect state of health at harvest time throughout the vineyard.

Tasting
A pretty, pale yellow colour with silver highlights.
Initially somewhat subdued, the nose reveals delicate fruit notes after swirling. Aromas of yellow fruit such as peach dominate, blending harmoniously with notes of pear and a subtle hint of ripe melon.
The attack is marked by a lovely sweetness. Throughout the tasting, a lovely freshness accompanies us and perfectly balances this sweetness. Notes of yellow fruit (peach) are also present, adding a lovely fruitiness. A very pleasant wine to enjoy as an aperitif.
