Tasting
Pale yellow colour. Fine, persistent bead. Fine, lively, complex bouquet, combining the freshness of Chenin Blanc and the floral overtones of Chardonnay with Cabernet Franc fruit. Lively initial impression on the palate, with a rounded structure, and an elegant follow-through. Lovely, long aftertaste, with hints of fresh fruit (pears, peaches).
Food pairings
as an aperitif or simply for pleasure (soft cheeses, fruit tarts sorbets, etc.).
