tasting notes
Sold Out
Brilliant golden hay colour. Rich melon fruit bouquet with ripe apricots following on the palate in perfect balance with toasted almond and vanilla flavours from the nine months ‘sur lie’ maturation. The wine has an elegant finish showing classical mineral tones.

food suggestions
This wine is great with any white fish, chicken with a light sauce, a favourite is calamari and for something different try apple pancakes. Brie and Camembert is also a great match.
