(2013 Vintage Notes)

A wine that is both complex and subtle, delighting the senses with aromas of pear and banana intertwined with fresh notes of citrus and spices. The oak is well-integrated and complements a pleasant sensation of freshness on the finish. This is undoubtedly a white wine to enjoy!

This wine offers a very wide range of pairing possibilities; it pairs wonderfully with smoked charcuterie, complements salmon in court bouillon or other delicately prepared or even grilled fish, and pairs beautifully with white meat or a dry sheep’s-milk cheese from our valleys. Hence the following pairing suggestions: langoustines with Thai basil, prawns flambéed with anise, traditional veal blanquette, tender game such as pigeon or guinea fowl...
