The Vintage 2011 : After a very cold winter and a demanding spring, the hot summer was regularly interrupted by rainy intervals which early September gave way to a bright and warm weather, that speeded up the maturation of the grapes. Harvest began in the last days of September under a bright sunshine.

Tasting : Pale gold colour. Refreshing aromas of citrus fruit green apple and fresh honey. Delicate minerality. Well structured and tight with a lot of energy. Well-defined minerality. Long and refreshing aftertaste.

Food pairing : Suitable for most occasions. Food parings include pâté, lobsters and poultry, as well as many goat cheeses.
