Bourillon Dorléans - La Coulée d'Argent 2014 (Sec)

Vouvray|White wine

3.4/5 (26 customers)

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. As it breathes, the minerality of the limestone emerges, releasing 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 it with a scallop risotto!
