The big sister of L'Élégante, Voluptueuse has more shape and roundness thanks to its time in cask. Aromas of citrus and white fruit mingle with buttery, vanilla notes on the palate. A lovely cuvée to share!

quite an original white wine, somewhere between a Chablis and a Côtes de Beaune...a terroir worth knowing!
