"A chic classic underpinned by a lovely tension that is most enjoyable!"
A very floral expression of Marsanne! This cuvée is greedy and round, yet supported by great freshness, especially on the finish. Notes of almond, caramel and brioche make it a delight!

About the domain :
The Delhome family has been growing vines since the early 20th century on the historic terroirs of Crozes-Hermitage. In 2019, Romain Delhome and his father Gérald decided to leave the cooperative and build their own winery. On a very fragmented plot of land in the north of the appellation, they cultivate 14 ha in organic conversion.
