"A bright ruby juice with blackberry fruit falling into the glass. Its flavor, both pure and tangy, speaks of a fresh terroir with clear tannins. A strong endorsement of a climate renowned for its white wines. Try it with grilled fish and herbs" (Le Guide des bonnes affaires du vin 2016 - Gerbelle & Maurange)
