Vinification takes place in temperature- controlled stainless steel tanks for 3 weeks minimum.
Bottling takes place in January.

Tasting notes:

Beautiful color with silver reflections.
The nose reveals notes of citrus and white flowers.
The attack on the palate is frank and ample underlined by a beautiful
freshness, which reveals notes of bergamot and fruits with firm flesh such as the nectarine.
The mineral finish gives it a nice length.

Wine and food pairings:

Seafood platter (oysters, crabs, whelks).
Artichokes marinated in lemon confit and feta cheese.
Fillet of sea bream, glazed peas and combawa mousseline sauce.
Wok of spring vegetables.
Dacquoise with nectarines.
