Wine Enthusiast
"The expression of a unique terroir!"
"This wine, traditionally aged on lees for two years in underground concrete vats, then aged in wood for a further two years, delivers a Goulaine of total fullness. The nose opens with subtle vegetal and broom notes, with a hint of toast. The palate reveals a full-bodied, rich and supple texture, haloed with beautifully fresh citrus notes. Highly harmonious, both refined and powerful, it pairs well with fish terrine or Beaufort or Comté cheese." (Le Guide Hachette 2026).

Wine rated (2025 guide) 93/100
Rated Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Wine Enthusiast)
About wine:
This is a luxurious wine. Golden in color, it has a fragrant nose of apple pie, orange marmalade, and spiced pear compote, with hints of mandarin zest. The smooth palate reveals rich fruit flavors and a depth that quickly makes you want a second sip. Pair this vintage with your evening grills and roasts.
