Winemaker's Tasting Notes
The château's classic cuvée. A vintage with a timeless style. Clear and bright, the dress has a pale color. The aromatic palette is complex with floral notes dominating: hawthorn, linden, and jasmine. On the palate, tropical fruits and citrus fruits appear: lychee, pineapple, grapefruit, Williams pear. Good tension, good acidity. Sweetness and freshness are in harmony.

90 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Perfumed and with fine fruit, the wine is full of baked apple fruitiness. Its rounded spicy aftertaste gives the wine complexity and a fine tangy aftertaste. Drink now.
