The very ripe grapes give this wine a superb supple and round body. On the palate, the barrel ageing brings toasted and vanilla notes. They are fully associated with the fruitiness of the wine.

Guide commentary: 'This is a wine that perfectly highlights the Chenin grape, after nine months of maturation. Very expressive, it is a condensed white fruit, enhanced with touches of undergrowth. The attack is soft, the mouth supple, round and fat, and the finish so fresh, with notes of lime.
