Terres des Amoureuses - Magic White 2012

Terres des Amoureuses - Magic White 2012

14,5/20

Gault & Millau

The new oak in this 100% Viognier is very well integrated. It adds a spicy note to the white fruit aromas typical of the grape variety. The grapes come from the estate’s northernmost plots; this white wine offers a lovely freshness that balances its ripe fruitiness.
