Note: International Wine Challenge 2008: Silver Medal, RVF 14/20
This lovely wine, made from the estate’s first October harvest, stands out for its incomparably fresh and delicate aromatic intensity, with notes of grapefruit, peach, and spring flowers. An entry-level wine that will surprise you with its generous and devilishly fruity finish.

A savourer à l’apéritif ou en accompagnement de la texture fine et iodée des coquillages et crustacés. Il accompagnera merveilleusement un pamplemousse aux crevettes, des filets de poissons citronnés, des poissons grillés...<br/>
