Terres des Amoureuses - Magic White 2012

Terres des Amoureuses - Magic White 2012

14,5/20

Gault & Millau

The oak notes in this 100% Viognier are beautifully integrated. They add a touch of spice to the white fruit aromas typical of the grape variety. The grapes come from the estate’s northernmost plots, and this white wine offers a lovely freshness that balances its ripe fruitiness.
