A brilliant yellow, with golden tints colour. Explosive on the nose with citrus notes typical of the Sauvignon Blanc with the fresh exotic fruit coming from the Gros Manseng. Interesting subtle note of mint is eivident. Touch of pineapple and Bourbon vanilla.Sweet but still on the medium sweet side. The low alcohol content, acidity and the residual sugars of the order of 45g/L contribute to a fresh, airy and rich balance on the palate. A real taste treat.

Method of Production:
To preserve the full aromatic potential of the grapes, the harvest is conducted at night, when temperatures are low. 12 hours of maceration follows to extract as much potential as possible. Slow gentle pressing is next, protected from any contact with air, thereby avoiding any oxidation. After working on fine lees, the juice is clarified and fermentation begins under closely watched temperatures. As soon as the acidity, the alcohol & residual sugars are brought into balance, the wine is chilled to stop fermentation. A very brief ageing (2 to 3 months in vats, on fine lees) is followed by early bottling to best preserve the grapes original aromas.
