Saumur white

Elegance

White
  /  
2023
€ 9.80 EUR

Produced from the Chenin grape variety, Elegance is a floral and structured wine, which expresses its delicate fruitiness with a remarkable aromatic complexity. Its gustatory harmony is based on notes of white flowers. Supple on the attack, the mouth is ample and unctuous, well supported by a fine acidity which brings freshness and lengthens the finish.
