40% Chenin blanc 60% Cabernet franc. Low dosage (5-6 gms/ltr) ensures a fine crisp aperitif style with finesse.
This cuvée showcases Chenin Blanc. Tasted once at the domaine, and once subsequently. A clear and very pale hue and a strong bead. The nose here is clean, stony, pebbly and crisp. On the palate a very straight style at first, showing some floral, slightly green and nettly characters, later richer hints of nettly sherbet and sweet, perfumed Edinburgh rock, along with a rather heady, cream soda feel. It has elegance, with fine floral, peachy nuances, as well as a good acid backbone. A fine summery style
