From a single-hectare parcel, the 2020 Demi-Sec Clos Berger presents a fine, floral nose. Fermented in stainless steel, preserving the bright pineapple and pear fruit. Easy to like and to drink. Pure, fresh and fruit-forward. Lovely balance and freshness despite the sweetness. Youthful but already drinking well
