Silver medal at Concours de Bordeaux 2009
This Les Trois Moulins white cuvée certainly owes much of its personality, fruitiness and exceptional freshness to the very special moment chosen to harvest the grapes at peak ripeness: in the afternoon, after the morning dews... A wine of great complexity, with melted oak and aromas of exotic fruit and candied fruit. Another great success!
