RVF

Elegant and well-integrated, the Croix de Montceau cuvée reveals aromas of brioche and white flowers on the nose. A white wine with a frank and lively attack on the palate, followed by some very pleasant toasted notes. The lingering finish leaves an impression of great smoothness and gives the wine a unique personality. A very nice bottle!
