Tasting Notes

40% Sauvignon Blanc, 20% Sauvignon Gris, 20% Muscadelle, 20% Semillon

The bouquet is a vibrant mix of citrus notes, including grapefruit, lemon, and lime, complemented by the subtlety of pear, apple, and melon. The palate follows with a similar zest, harmoniously blending these fruits with undertones of gooseberry, grass, and a hint of passionfruit. Floral notes of honeysuckle and elderflower add a delicate complexity while the essence of linden lingers.

Pairing Block

Food Pairing

Dry Bordeaux blends of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon balance bright citrus-driven freshness with a subtle, waxy roundness, making them ideal with clean, delicately savory dishes. Sauvignon’s lift and herbal edge complement greens, shellfish, and lightly aromatic ingredients, while Sémillon’s texture supports gentle creaminess and soft, buttery elements. Together, they pair best with simply prepared seafood, fresh herbs, crisp vegetables, and refined, understated flavors that mirror the wine’s poise and clarity.
