With subtle honeyed notes, this mellow cuvée expresses remarkable freshness. Controlled acidity and exotic fruit flavors combine elegantly in this bottle. La Levrière is a mellow Vouvray without any heaviness that can be enjoyed on any occasion.

Exotic attack. Successive aromatic touches. First white fruit (pear, nectarine), then more candied notes of fig and mango. Minerality on aeration.

Mouth

Very rich and unctuous on the attack. Spices and very ripe exotic fruit (mango, pineapple). Acidity and freshness.
