Note: "Special Trophy" (better than Gold!) at the Concours Mondial du Sauvignon (blend category)
This reserve cuvée, composed of 52% Sauvignon, 38% Sémillon, and 10% Muscadelle, is produced in the Entre-Deux-Mers region. A fresh and approachable white, highly aromatic with citrus notes and delicious hints of passion fruit. The attack is lively and crisp, at once smooth and refreshing, with subtle peppery nuances. A wine that’s pure pleasure to share this summer!
