The old vines truly shine in this unique Jacquère, crafted for fine dining. Almost minty, the wine offers a precise, mineral-driven palate with taut notes of ginger, stone fruits, white flowers, pear, and citrus. The subtle acidity and salinity on the finish add complexity and a lovely length. Our palate is delighted from start to finish. A marvel!

Food and Wine Pairings
Perfect as an aperitif and with freshwater fish (or cold hake), as well as certain seafood (such as mussels marinière, rather than oysters or raw shellfish, where the iodine might overpower the wine). It also pairs beautifully with certain mild cheeses, such as Reblochon, goat cheeses that aren’t too aged, and a creamy Saint-Marcellin.
