Region: Bordeaux - France
Grapes: Muscadelle, Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon
Tastings Notes: Bright yellow-gold. Spicy, ripe, complex aromas of peach, apricot, orange and nutmeg. Juicy, shapely and sweet, with lovely inner-mouth lift and aromatic character. High-toned and expressive but also quite fresh and precise for the year. Finishes impressively long and firm.
