10 ha vineyard, terroir of Kimmeridgian limestone marls<\/p>\n
Yellow colour with light green highlights. A highly complex nose, dominated by white fruits, combined with citrus notes and a hint of minerality. Full-bodied and rich on the palate, perfectly balanced thanks to a lovely mineral structure. Notes of white fruits accompany a rich, lingering finish.<\/p>\n
“A well-rounded, delicious and balanced white with aromas of sliced apples, yellow plums and warm herbs. Medium-bodied with fresh acidity. Juicy and playful, with a flavorful, textural finish. Drink or hold.” – James Suckling, 92 Points<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThis wine is bottled pleasure. Fra grant aromas of juicy green apple, white peach and gooseberry fill the nose alongside orange blossom and white rose petal.
