This blend of Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Sauvignon Gris has a bright golden-yellow colour with light green reflections. On the nose, intense aromas of ripe peach, pineapple and citrus come together with subtle notes of honey, vanilla and toasted hazelnut, derived from ageing in new French oak barrels. The palate is creamy and full, with a lovely balance between fresh acidity and rich structure. The oak ageing adds complexity and depth, giving the wine a silky texture with notes of butter, toast and spice. The finish is long and refined, with lingering notes of vanilla, citrus zest and a light minerality.
Grilled scallops, lobster in butter sauce, creamy truffle risotto.
