Villa Blanche

A pale, gleaming wine with golden reflections. The nose is well balanced, with powerful aromas of acacia flowers, vine peach and aniseed so characteristic of our Villa Blanche Chardonnay, followed up by elegant notes of vanilla, coconut milk and gingerbread. Blending proved complicated this year, and required great precision to obtain the particular profile that has made this wine such a success. But the result is a pure, incisive, mouth-filling wine with a sumptuous finish of great persistence. This vintage has given us notes of broom flowers, mint, and juniper, but also exotic fruit such as mango and grapefruit, with rich buttery notes, grilled almonds, and honey on the finish. Superbly balanced, perhaps less opulent than last year, but with enormous character and elegance.
