"A sure bet in the appellation

Côte Chatillon is at once sweet and massive, powerful and tender. Notes of yellow fruit, exotic fruit and flowers blend harmoniously with sweetness and oak on the palate, with a hint of minerality. THE sure thing in this appellation! - Attention, limited quantities

Tasting & pairing

Eye

Gold with mother-of-pearl highlights

Nose

Notes of yellow fruit, exotic fruit and flowers dominate the first nose. As with great wines, aromatic complexity increases with a little aeration.

Mouth

A harmonious, suave cuvee, the palate is both soft and massive, powerful and tender. The sweetness and woodiness that characterize it are enhanced by more mineral notes, which contribute to a beautifully balanced whole. This wine required special attention to reconcile tenderness, strength and balance in the same bottle.
