With this indulgent cuvée, the estate highlights the contrast between the minerality of the Chenin and the richness of the Chardonnay, creating a sensation on the palate that closely resembles the sweet-and-salty balance found in cuisine. A vintage that offers aromas that are both exotic and very slightly vanilla-like, surprising and alluring, complemented by a very subtle hint of salinity on the finish... Astonishing!
