Impressions of pink grapefruit, pineapple and ripe peach jump out of the glass. These flavors are also found in the mouth and are accompanied by notions of ginger and spices. The finale is long, balanced, lively and with a pleasant elegant acidity. Slightly sweet final!

Icon wine of the domain. Beautiful light yellow color. Wonderfully refreshing aromas with notes of agrum, nectarine, a hint of fresh sea air, kelp and fine herbs. Mineral and crunchy character with a great sense of finesse and a remarkable balance. The Sémillon comes up in the final, rounding off the sharp character of the Sauvignon nicely. Culinary style that will delight any wine lover.
