Our oenologists' opinion
Fruity and well-rounded
A straightforward nose with aromas of white peach and pear, followed by citrus fruit, white flowers, bergamot and Earl Grey tea.
The attack is supple and round, followed by a long finish that highlights the wine's finesse and balance.
The finish is clean and delicious, with a subtle floral hint.

Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Do you know ?
Designed in the 19th century, the Château's exuberant architecture was intended to hide its cellars.
