Pretty nose of white-fleshed fruits (pear, peach) at first, then a hint of fennel and gunflint are felt. Floral aromas are revealed when opened. On the palate, freshness and delicacy characterize the wine. The fruity aromas prolong the pleasure.

75% Semillon, 15% Sauvignon Blanc  9% Sauvignon Gris, 1% Muscadelle

Manual harvest and sorting in the vineyard, gentle pneumatic pressing to extract only the finest juices, fermentation in vats (66%) and in barrels of one or two wines of 225 and 400 liters (33%) to preserve the freshness of the wine and its delicacy without too much aromatic mark, aging in these same containers for 6 months, regular stirring, bottling, control of dissolved oxygen throughout the production process. Vinification with the same requirements as a Pessac Léognan Blanc.

Subtle sour cream to the ripe gooseberries, passion fruit, cumin and fennel spices. Textured and medium-bodied on the palate with lovely dryness and a pure and subtle finish. Zippy and zesty at the end with a faint creamy accent.
