Domaines Ott 'Etoile', Vin de 2021 France Domaine Alain Normand On The PalateA notion of white peach opens the subtle nose. More air and temperature then reveals hints of Mirabelle plum and a lovely hint of pink grapefruit, alongside a touch of wet pebble. The palate then surprises with its immense texture: this is where the wine shows its true self, with wonderfully smooth, pithy mouthfeel, zesty freshness and an immense sense of juiciness. Lovely now, will evolve. 95 Pts Falstaff Very pale coral color with aromas of cherry
