Auxerrois 2023 Sec François Bleger is an elegant white wine from Alsace, a region known for its aromatic white wines. The Auxerrois grape, closely related to Pinot Blanc, here delivers an expressive and refined wine with a pleasant balance between ripe fruit and freshness. The wine has a bright pale yellow colour with golden highlights. On the nose, it opens with delicate aromas of ripe pear, apple and peach, complemented by subtle notes of honey, white flowers and a touch of citrus. On the palate, this Auxerrois is round and soft, with a light creaminess nicely offset by refreshing acidity. The fruity and floral notes remain clearly present and are supported by a subtle mineral touch. The finish is refined and elegant, with a lightly spicy hint and a lingering fresh character.
Perfect with asparagus, quiche Lorraine, poultry in cream sauce or mild cheeses.
