    An exceptional white wine emblematic of the sun-drenched slopes of the Rhône Valley. It captivates with its aromatic complexity and refined structure. It is a complex blend, to which each grape variety contributes its own unique touch.

    94/100 pts RVFThe nose combines maturity and freshness. It is typical (nuances of wild anise, fennel and honeysuckle), finely aromatic, without exuberance. A precise whole with lovely depth. This 2023 is harmonious with a beautiful compromise between alcohol and savoriness. It has more structure than the 2021, without being overly sunny.
