Shimmering in a pale golden yellow, the 2022 Auxerrois Quartz and Clay by Michael Andres reveals green and silver nuances in its colour palette. Its bouquet is defined by elegant hints of apple, pear and quince, underpinned by radiant citrus and ginger nuances. As it gains some air, additional accents of almond and yeast reveal themselves, complemented by a maritime shell note. Distant, yet with sincere grace, this multi-faceted wine presents itself.
This elegance continues on the palate, where juicy fruit flavours and an invigorating acidity are noticeably prominent. A subtle salty trace enlivens the taste experience and confirms the versatility of this white wine. As a culinary enhancement, the wine is perfect for both upscale occasions and casual dinners, delivering superior value for money.
A variety of dishes go well with this wine. An alternative recommendation for pairing with the wine is miso-spiced cod on a caramelised fennel garnish, chicken breast with lemon thyme butter and roast potatoes or a tender pork tenderloin in honey mustard sauce with sautéed pointed cabbage.
