"A blockbuster white from the Loire, this wine is rich and opulent, with extremely ripe aromas of dried fruit, nuts and toast; and thick on the palate, with flavors of raisins, minerals, spice and toast. Quite sweet yet beautifully balanced it's delicious now, but will improve as it ages; the older the better."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
A versatile Loire white of high acidity, making dry, sweet and sparkling wines of honey, quince and remarkable longevity.
