Production begins with the autumn harvest when the grapes have reached the perfect ripeness. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon grapes are harvested separately, then fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve the most natural and pure flavors. After fermentation, the wine is filtered and stored in oak barrels for a short time, helping the wine to be more rounded and balanced. The combination of traditional winemaking techniques and modern technology has created a perfect white wine, imbued with the identity of the Bordeaux region.

On the nose, the nose opens with succulent aromas of jammed mirabelle plum and lime honey, joined upon aeration by elegant notes of apricot and candied orange.
On the palate, the round and substantial attack reveals powerful flavors of apricot and caramelized apple, evolving into a nicely full mid-palate with subtle notes of maple syrup and apricot. Delicate touches of citrus on the finish give an elegant freshness to the palate.
