(Notes from the 2017 vintage)
guaranteed enjoyment

This beautiful white wine from northern Burgundy, produced on limestone soil, lives up to its name! Elegant and delicate on the nose, this cuvée exudes subtle vanilla notes. It unfolds on the palate with a refined yet smooth texture and citrus and mineral notes reminiscent of the Chablis terroir. A cuvée that is sure to please!
