Taste Note: Its complexity starts out warm, golden, and shimmering, with eastern exoticism: crystallized fruits, frangipane, sweet spices, and fresh coriander. On the first nose, sa ron is greyer and more saline, with the bouquet slowly becoming complex and then more austere, mysterious, clean, and soothing. The flavor instantly unfurls leaving a bright, expressive, delicate aftertaste that is lively yet sensual, and still very fruit-forward. The nose and palate are strikingly similar, and the velvety mouthfeel becomes deeper and richer. The overall result displays intense, elegant, saline, and slight licorice notes.
Winemaking Process: For each vintage and from its inception, a limited number of bottles are set aside in the cellars, predestined for longer maturation. With this extra time, the inner activity in the bottle increases. The yeast transfers its energy to the wine… a mysterious transfer of life.
Sommelier Advice: Coherence is the key characteristic of P2. To reveal it and to make the wine react through pairings, the provocation is the way with a strong beef stock or ravioli of whelks in parsley. It’s interesting to draw it out through small touches within rich, complete meals: fried artichokes, sea bass, peach salad, and Kombu; grilled potato chips, milk foam, and caviar.
