Tasting Notes
This 100% Sauvignon white, which comes from this multitude of terroirs, offers a wonderful diversity of aromas. Its brilliant and luminous color, pale yellow color with golden reflections, opens with an intense and pleasant nose that combines the scents of citrus fruits (grapefruit) with those of exotic fruits (mango, passion).
On the palate, a smooth attack offers a fleshy substance, a sensation of sweetness, a lot of "fat", balance, as well as fruity aromas (peach, lemon) that persist in a long and harmonious finish.
