The nose is floral and mineral, with bright citrus fruits. Full and plump on the palate, this is lightly polished, with citrus peel notes, and a rather delicate infusion of minerality. It has a quite charming style, with touches of bitter citrus notes which will have fans of this variety swooning.

The 2017 Brut Vouvray Pétillant is a lightly sparkling demi-sec style. This is a round and lightly biscuity expression with very fine delicate bubbles but not fully sparkling - the second fermentation uses some residual natural sugar that is retained from the first fermentation. Left on lees for around three years, it develops a light pastry character alongside floral notes and a salty sensation. The mouth-watering acidity combines with an attractive, textural roundness and weight.
