NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Domaine Patrick Baudouin Le Cornillard Anjou displays a pale straw hue in youth.On the nose, this wine offers a complex array of citrus and orchard fruits, including notes of lemon, juicy pear, crisp apple, quince and hints of honey. There is also a delicate floral aroma, with subtle hints of white flowers and a touch of honeysuckle. The palate shows a fine balance between refreshing acidity and flavors of the ripe fruits. These flavors continue to shine, accompanied by a touch of minerality that adds depth and complexity to the wine. The Le Cornillard Anjou has a medium body and a long, elegant finish.
