Advice

Tasting
A pale lemon colour with flashes of green. The nose is subtle, with hints of white flowers. A clean, mineral-laden palate finishes with notes of citrus and white-fleshed fruits. This wine’s subtle aromas lend themselves to all kinds of food matches. It highlights the elegant flavours of a wide range of dishes.
Serving
This wine should be chilled to about 8-10 °C before pouring.
Food pairings
In spring and summer, this is the perfect match for grilled fish of all kinds, shellfish and fish served in light cream or butter-based sauces.
This wine harmonises beautifully with autumnal flavours. Try it with a chestnut soup – you’ll find it highlighted with biscuitty, toasty notes. It works well with a barley risotto studded with wild mushrooms as the dish brings out vegetal and aniseed notes in the wine. Or how about pinenut rissoles or a dish of veal with chard ?
