In the press

"High Sauvignon Blanc aromatics on the first nose, underlaid by a richer apricot and honeysuckle that come in from the Sémillon. This doesn't quite lift off, although there is attractive placing of slate minerality as it opens. Good-quality, with touches of succulent minerality. A yield of 42hl/ha, 40% new oak. Drink 2021-2032."
Jane Anson, Decanter.com

Tasting note

Lively, opulent Bordeaux white, perfumed with stone fruits and elderflowers, with a creamy texture and refreshing notes of lemon and grapefruit.

Viticulture

From old vines on just one hectare of well draining gravel soils. Use of double guyot training, green harvest and hand harvest carried out by hand before a strict sorting process.

Vinification

Maceration for a period of three weeks with pumping over in temperature controlled stainless steel vats. Fermentation in french oak barrel with lees stirring. Ageing in oak barrels during 8 months on the lees.

Food Match

Cod in white wine or grilled chicken salad.
