Sommelier's Note

"An invigorating evocation of marine freshness, this blend of Grenache Blanc and Grenache Gris opens with a spring-like nose of white flowers and wild peach, complemented by a subtle hint of anise. On the palate, the wine is bright, thirst-quenching, and perfectly balanced, prolonging the pleasure with a savory finish of remarkable aromatic persistence. A real favorite for this magnificent southern wine, as fresh as a sea breeze!"
