"An exquisite blend of Clairette and Bourboulenc"
“Precise, textured, and lively, this white blend—composed of 80% Clairette and 20% Bourboulenc—offers aromas of dried lemons, wild herbs, and raw almonds. Medium-bodied, it delivers alluring flavors of pears and sweet spices on the palate. A savory and lingering finish. ” (James Suckling 2026)

About the wine:
The oak aging has been successful: it highlights the tangy notes of citrus and dried mango, while adding a touch of finesse. This is a full-bodied wine that is truly rich and generous on the palate. It displays lovely tension and freshness. Very promising, with a woody style.
