Domaine Boudau's whites never disappoint! Complex and subtle, this cuvée captivates from the very first drop. Pear, golden apple, acacia, fresh butter and vanilla intermingle in a concert of flavors. Elegant and fine, the palate is a call to indulgence, with a delicate, fresh finish. This is THE cuvée to discover!

About the domain :

Véronique Boudau and her brother Pierre have run the family estate since 1993. They decided to breathe new life into the estate, which covers some 50 hectares on excellent terroirs at the entrance to the Agly valley. The gamble paid off: the entire production is bottled and marketed, notably through a network of restaurants and wine merchants. A sure bet, the vineyard has been converted to organic farming. Véronique's daughter has just joined the adventure.
