Country: France
Grape Varietal: Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Powerful, harmonious nose with notes of citrus, mango, and other exotic fruit.
Palate: The direct, energetic attack on the palate presents the same exotic, fresh character. The wine presents plenty of volume and good harmony. The buttery notes from the barrel-ageing have a definite presence and will quickly become integrated to give the wine more complexity. The finish is backed up by a pleasant acidity.
Food Pairing:
Meaty and oily fish.
