RVF Award: Exceptional Success (2011 Vintage Special)
Blanc Ivoire is a generous wine, offering aromas of dried fruit from its aging. Its mineral freshness adds complexity, and the balanced palate is full-bodied and refined. The briny tension makes it exceptionally appealing. A truly delightful bottle!
