Production notes
Sauvignon & Colombar + unsystematic addition of Rolle or Albariño depending on the vintage. For Sauvignon and Colombar, we buy organically grown grapes - Rolle and Albariño from the estate on the Causse Calcaire. Direct pressing of whole bunches.

Notes of white-fleshed fruit, lemon and a herbaceous, floral finish. Fresh, lively, crisp and juicy.
