50-50 Sauvignon blanc and semillon. Wow! It's really not that easy to impress me with some white, since I'm not-to-be-helped red fan, but Fieuzal did it! Shiny gold, saturated color. Filling honey nose with some fruit. And then: it hit me: concentrated overripe apples, creamy fruits, cantaloupe, candies, maybe even caramel. Very cultivated and noble acidity. Amazingly thick and complex palate. Persistent aftertaste. I enjoyed it with Istrian lobster on truffled pappardelle - and was amazed how exciting the combination of sweet lobster meat, intense fresh white truffle aroma and Fieuzal apple notes is. BTW. what are your favs to accompany white truffle dishes? Any recommendations?
