2*Coup de Coeur

Hachette

"Clean, bright and slightly golden, the color of this half-sauvignon gris, half-sémillon cuvée is particularly meticulous. The nose is not to be outdone, with powerful yet delicate scents of white fruit (pear) and ripe exotic fruit. These equally intense aromas are echoed on the round, smooth palate, well-balanced by a fine freshness on the finish. A harmonious wine from start to finish". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2016)

Very good value for money, especially for me who's used to Sauternes. A pleasant surprise, highly recommended as an aperitif or with ice cream or homemade sorbet...
