Wine Region: Bordeaux - France
Grape:Sémillon and Sauvignon
Tasting notes:
This 2010 vintage presents a yellow gold robe with a beautiful intensity and lively reflections. The elegant and expressive nose of white fruits (peach, pear) and candied fruits (apricot) is enhanced by a light floral note, all expressing a beautiful freshness. The intense, lively and light attack evolves in the mouth towards spicy (ginger) and lemony notes, giving it freshness and persistence at the end of the tasting. Nice balance for this wine which has a bright future ahead of it, but is already tasty.
