Weather conditions

2022 was a particularly atypical year due to extreme weather conditions. ln addition to a very early frost in the spring, which affected the vineyard Just as the vines were starting to bud, there was a long period of exceptional drought from May until the end of September. The result was low yields and a perfect state of health at harvest time throughout the vineyard.

Harvest

29 August 2022

Tasting

Pale yellow colour with some silver highlights.
Intense and complex, the nose reveals fruity notes of citrus, passion fruit and white fruit (peach).
The attack is rather supple. There is a nice volume in the middle of the mouth with a very present fruit. A nice freshness quickly arrives on the palate, bringing a nice balance and length to the finish. We have here a nice aromatic return of the Sauvignon Blanc.
