This lovely dry Vouvray, with its deep yellow color and orange highlights, is a complex white wine that opens with notes of toasted hazelnuts and licorice. When aerated, the minerality of the limestone comes through, exuding notes of tuffeau stone and cold coffee. Rich on the palate, it unfolds flavors of honey and acacia, with a smooth, vanilla-tinged finish... Pair with a scallop risotto!

A complex nose and a well-structured, sapid palate, very Chenin. A very fine bottle.
