"Citrus notes with an exotic touch on the nose. Beautiful tension on the palate, with a well-presented minerality and a finish of pleasant bitters." (Bourgogne Aujourd'hui n° 160 - August-September 2021) What a delight! Perfect with shellfish, fish or goat's cheese. Superb potential.

About the domain :
Dom. de la Croix Senaillet was founded in 1969 by Maurice Martin, who gradually abandoned mixed farming in favor of vines. In 1990, his son Richard took over the family estate, before being joined by his brother Stéphane in 1992. The property, initially 6.5 ha, has grown to 25 ha today, spread over 52 parcels that have been certified organic since 2010. Building on their experience, in 2015 the brothers acquired Dom. de Mont Épin in Clessé (13 ha).

Quite suave. Viney at the same time. Good wine developing white fruit notes. Improves with aeration. Good value for money.
