"A benchmark for the Entre-deux-Mers region
"A fruity cuvée, made from a broad base of Sauvignon Blanc and a little Muscadelle (12%). On the nose, it evokes yellow fruit with mineral and floral notes. Citrus fruits follow on the light palate, whose freshness carries through to the finish". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2020)
