And, indeed, a touch of orange in the bouquet. Floral too, rose petals, very seductive. The fruit has a sweetness unlike the other Bonnode wines, though the finish is entirely dry. Bread yeast notes are integrated into the fruit salad. Some little red fruits as well, wild strawberry. When to drink a wine like this? Perhaps on its own as a wine of meditation. Drink from 2026-2029.

Aromas of rose petals and fresh orange zest rise from the glass, accompanied by unexpected hints of wild strawberry. On the palate, there is a deceiving initial impression of sweet fruit salad, but the wine quickly reveals an entirely dry, structured core. Savory bread yeast notes are perfectly integrated into the textural mid-palate, framed by gentle, skin-derived tannins and finishing with a meditative, lingering complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- SERVING SUGGESTION --\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003eServing Suggestion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"color: #444444; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.7; margin-bottom: 30px; padding-left: 20px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Serve slightly chilled at 50-54°F (10-12°C) in a universal or white Burgundy glass to allow the complex aromatics to fully unfold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDecanting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not necessary, but allowing it to breathe in the glass enhances the floral notes.
