Tasting notes
Super aromatic on the nose with freshly cut asparagus, elderflower, petit pois, greengage and the gentlest hint of gunflint. With a bit of coaxing riper, more tropical guava and nashi pear aromas begin to surface. Crisp and refreshing with whisps of spice, this is a delicious, multidimensional Bordeaux Blanc.

Flowers, spice, orange rind, almonds and lemon zest show easily on the nose. The wine is forward, lush, fruity and oily, with a spicy, creamy, lemon finish
Aromatic nose of guava, pears, lemongrass, cloves and white pepper spice. It’s medium-bodied, with compact and weighty layers of tropical fruit and spice. Fantastic flavor intensity and persistency. Drink now or hold.
