    In a few words ...

    One of the few white Grand Cru Classés, with a complex, floral bouquet. This legendary wine develops notes of dried and candied fruit with age.

    Tasting notes

    Appearance

    Yellow gold robe, limpid and shiny, can have green highlights.

    Aroma

    Citrus and acacia notes, the nose is reminiscent of white-fleshed fruits. Farming notes of the order of hazelnut or toast can be felt.

    Wine Floral | Fruity | Spicy

    Taste

    Flavors and complex aromas, underlined by the woody and toasted note of barrel aging. Beautiful acidity well present, which is balanced with the strong presence of white flesh fruits such as peach.

    You can feel the Sauvignon, the round, supple texture and the salty, toasty, white-fleshed fruit aromas. I enjoyed half a bottle with a platter of oysters, which may not have been the best match, but it was great fun!
