"Sauvignon and Sémillon come together in this pale yellow cuvée with beautiful emerald highlights. They offer a persistent bouquet of citrus and exotic fruits, underscored by floral notes. A slight effervescence highlights the harmonious freshness of this highly aromatic wine." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2020) A success at a very low price!

Review and opinion by Mr. OLIVIER R. Published on 03/02/2020
A lively white wine carried by the tension and aroma of Sauvignon. Frank and lively, it nevertheless lacks a little structure and depth. Best enjoyed as an aperitif.
