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 spice to the white fruit aromas typical of the grape variety. The grapes come from the northernmost plots of the estate, giving this white wine a lovely freshness that balances the ripe fruitiness.
