Viticulture and production
The wine is vinified with native yeasts at very low temperatures, and aging takes place in stainless steel tanks for approximately 6 months. It is then aged in new oak barrels for 12 months.

Tasting and pairing
A beautiful pale yellow color with golden highlights. The nose is characterized by floral notes: lily of the valley, jasmine, orange blossom, but also by discreet notes of
Toasted hazelnut. The palate is very broad and round, yet fresh, with aromas of warm bread, brioche, exotic fruits, mandarin, and pineapple. A lovely aromatic persistence at the finish, where brioche notes emerge. It can be served as an aperitif, alongside fish canapés, foie gras, or blue cheese, as an accompaniment to fresh fruit desserts, or as the perfect ending to a meal. -
