This elegant wine is a harmonious blend of predominantly Grenache Blanc, subtly underpinned by Bourboulenc, Clairette, and Viognier. It presents a brilliant straw colour with fragrant aromas of pears, white peaches, and subtle floral notes. On the palate, it is wonderfully full-bodied yet exceptionally balanced, offering layers of luscious fruit flavours with hints of honey and delightful minerality. The finish is lasting and expressive. This wine perfectly accompanies seafood, white meats or creamy cheeses, and adds a touch of sophistication to any occasion.

Tasting Notes

Bone dry with real power. Aromas of peach and apricot, excellent concentration on the palate with vibrant acidity, a full mouthfeel and refreshing acidity on the finish.
