Serving and food pairings
Maintain the serving temperature between 8 and 10 ° C and present this Cuvée in a rather curved goblet flute.
It can be paired simply with salted cookies or a Parmesan cheese 30 months but also with dishes of firm textures and tangy sauces.
For example, chicken with lemon, red mullet with a yuzu sauce, fresh shrimps sautéed in grapefruit, tuna carpaccio, spaghetti chitarra or Troccoli Pugliesi with a cherry tomato and basil sauce or a seafood salad dressed with extra virgin olive oil and parsley...

Olfactory analysis
The first nose is intense and appetizing.
We perceive hazelnut, vanilla and pastry. Then the autolysis notes come in with the puff pastry and the waffles.
Later it’s the terroir’s turn to express itself. Thyme, bay leaf, broom, bergamot bring nuance and character.
This is a complex nose, which the expression is shared between knowledge and origin.

Hervy-Quenardel
From a young age, I worked alongside my father in our vineyards, fostering a deep
connection with nature.
Driven by my innate passion for nature, I pursued further education at the Lycée
Agricole, where I delved into the multifaceted realm of viticulture. It was there that I
realized I had inherited the same fervor that ignited the souls of my ancestors: the
ability to shepherd a cuvée from vine to bottle, overseeing every step of its creation.
Few vocations afford such a comprehensive and fulfilling journey.
