The taste buds salivate at the sight of this pretty white Crozes with green highlights. On the nose, mineral and citrus notes with floral floral aromas. On the palate, freshness, floral notes and a subtle finish of white-fleshed fruit. Limited quantities available.

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine noté (guide 2021) Sélectionné (An estate or house that has won us over with one or more wines from its production, without us being able to give a general opinion on the style of the entire range)
About the domain :
Lucie and Nacy Fourel took their vines out of the Cave Coop in 2010, the year of their first vintage. Today, their 10 hectares are vinified with indigenous yeasts and without SO2, with greater success in reds than in whites.
