Appearance - Bright, deep straw yellow hue. Nose - Very complex and discreet. In its early youth, the nose is fresh with mineral and citrus notes. After one or two years of cellar-ageing, the first nose is dominated by notes of peaches and pears and then goes on to develop exotic aromas of ripe mango and a floral touch of jasmine and rose with a hint of gunflint. Palate - When young, the wine is fresh on entry and continues with a nice balance between roundness and acidity set off by touches of citrus and minerality. After a year of cellar-ageing, the palate becomes rounder and more elegant with greater length and fat and complex aromas of ripe yellow fruit, flowers and citrus.

Very fresh, with a long, pure stream of verbena, white peach, lemon pith, yellow apple and chamomile notes, all supported by a deftly inlaid spine of shortbread that runs from start to finish. Grenache Blanc, Clairette, Roussanne and Bourboulenc. Drink now through 2026.
