2022 Moncerbal—a wine that transcends words. From its first impression, it captivates with an exceptionally floral fragrance, evoking lily of the valley, lilac, and a delicate blossom perfume that seems to float on air. There is a sensual, almost peach-skin softness to the nose, interwoven with ripe blueberry fruit and a tight mineral core that brings piercing focus and precision.

Tasting Profile
On the palate, Moncerbal reveals its savoury spine, with a fine, taut mineral line anchoring the wine from start to finish. The ripe blue and black fruits provide enveloping texture and richness, but never overpower—this is not a fruit-driven wine, but one of purity, structure, and nuance. It carries remarkable length, with the weight and balance in the mouth revealing both freshness and depth in equal measure.

Food Pairing
Ideal pairings include roast quail, duck breast, or miso-glazed eggplant. Dishes that allow the wine’s floral and mineral qualities to shine will be most rewarding.
