Description
The rich, golden colour of Hermes Diactoros II leads into sumptuous aromas of baked peach, yellow apples and vanilla custard. On the palate, complex notes of dry ginger and candied peel, with luscious texture from six months' lees-ageing with bâtonnage in stainless steel vats. This is such a gorgeously rounded, generous style that it comes as a slight surprise that no oak is used. It is composed of about 60% Viognier, supported by Bellone, Chardonnay, Petit Manseng and Incrocio Manzoni.
