Details

From our importer: This 100% Chardonnay white has an expressive nose delivering real aromatic intensity with notes of citrus and exotic fruits, a rich yellow robe with glints of gold, and a finely balanced palate with lemony hints and a full lingering finish that calls for a second glass... The aromas of the Loire combined with all the minerality of a Chablis!

This wine will reveal its full finesse and freshness drunk as an aperitif or accompanying oysters, guinea fowl supreme with morels, risotto with truffles or Crottin de Chavignol cheese – a true quaffing wine!
