Straw yellow with golden highlights. On the nose, white flowers and white-fleshed stone fruits evolving into notes of buttery hazelnuts. Honey hints develop over ageing. Mouth-filling and plump with honey and fresh ripe fruits (peach, white currant). Great length with an elegant citrus finish.
Serve as an aperitif or enjoy with main course salads, crusty seabass and foie gras, lobster in mild spices, roast chicken with crayfish, or with desserts of apple pie or crème caramel.

Honeysuckle, apricot, papaya and lemon-curd aromas. It’s full-bodied with smooth, creamy layers of ripe fruit, yet it stays fresh. Nice tropical fruit at the finish. And hot stone. Drink now.

A bright, lifted style, with gardenia and citrus blossoms followed by delicate pear and nectarine. Silky on the palate, with Key lime-laced acidity, savory minerality and pithy bitterness bringing focus to the finish. Grenache Blanc, Clairette, Roussanne and Bourboulenc. Drink now through 2026. 1,500 cases made, 300 cases imported.
