100% Chardonnay.
Colour: nice golden yellow.
Nose: citrus and exotic fruits (pineapple) scents carried by an elegant wood.
Palate: the attack is mineral, with exotic aromas (pineapple again). The wine is both ample and tense. The finish is long with a nice persistence of citrus aromas.
Will be perfect paired with cold meats, fine fish and seafood, but also hot starters, white meat in sauce and dry goat cheeses.
Serve ideally between 12° and 14°C. (54° - 57°F.).
5 years in average.
