Blending of the best vintages
It should be drunk young, but will retain its freshness and character for at least 2-3 years. Its lemony aromas and its frank, lively character on the palate make it unequalled on a platter of oysters or seafood.
It also goes well with grilled fish or fish cooked in papillotes.
Lovers of Kir will appreciate it for its lightness and freshness, and it is also remarkable as a basic white wine for cocktails (white sangria, etc.).
