Tasting Notes
The nose has an elegant bouquet with subtle notes of lychee and ripe yellow pears. Juicy sweet on the palate with a touch of mint, exotic flavours of honeydew melon, grapefruit and candied citrus fruits. The fresh acid is perfectly integrated into the residual sugar and harmonises perfectly with the finely balanced body. The finish is powerful with a long aromatic flavour.
Terroir
Strong maritime influences from the Mediterranean coas
Viticulture
*Suitable for Vegans & Vegetarians but contains milk.
