TASTING NOTES
White wine with a stunning dry impression. The nose is explosive ; aromas of rose and exotic fruits. On the palate, ample and suave substance reveals all the exuberance and complexity of this grape variety.
Impacted by the climatic conditions of a dry and very warm summer, the 2019 vintage is less abundant than usual. A beautiful late season – and some rain expected – leaves a very ripe acidity. Despite the impact of the drought, the harvest is healthy and qualitative. The wines are structured and precise.
