Wine review: A crisp and fruity blend featuring 20% of the herbaceous Sauvignon Blanc, 50% creamy Loin de l’Oeil and notes of fresh apple and crisp pear, plus a touch of herb from the 30% Mauzac. It has a bright feel, with a hint of mineral on the finish.
My review: I was hoping for more, but was still satisfied. Aromas of grass and nuance of soap, with somehow a gritty smell. On the palate, the wine was simply dry and grassy.
