Domaine Georges Vernay : Les Terrasses de l'Empire 2024

Balances richness with freshness. Alluring honeysuckle and floral high tones give way to persimmon, orange and melon, all flecked with fresh fennel, dried thyme and oregano. Shows real concentration and vibrates with energy and bitter mineral notes, with just a touch of buttercream streaming through. The finish is long and complex. Drink now through 2030. 7,500 cases made, 756 cases imported.
