In the glass
Aroma: white orchard fruit, citrus
Palate: citrus, orchard fruit
Clay limestone marls of the same kind as the blue marl that suits Savagnin, a terroir the estate says keeps acidity and structure in the wine. Fine, delicate bubble with fresh, elegantly fruity flavour. Dosed at 2 grams per litre.
