Wine Enthusiast
"A wine with a subtle nose of yellow fruits and exotic fruits, supple and fresh on the palate, richer and honeyed as it develops. A beautiful personality." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2020) Nestled between richness and crisp minerality, this wine envelops us with notes of yellow fruit and ripe apple. The acidity provides an essential contrast and the perfect balance to this highly refined wine.

About the estate:
The Dom. de la Croix Senaillet was founded in 1969 by Maurice Martin, who gradually abandoned mixed farming in favor of viticulture. In 1990, his son Richard took over the family estate, before being joined by his brother Stéphane in 1992. The property, which initially covered 6.5 hectares, has expanded to 25 hectares today, spread over 52 plots that have been certified organic since 2010. Building on their experience, in 2015 the brothers acquired Dom. de Mont Épin in Clessé (13 hectares).

About wine:
Rich in fruit and with flavors of ripe red apple, this wine is both rich and crisply mineral. The acidity provides an essential contrast to the full fruitiness. Drink from 2020 onwards.
