A dry and brisk wine, typical of Chablis. Brilliant yellow-green colour with green reflections. On the nose, mineral and complex aromas are reminiscent of lemon and white flower. On the palate, the first impression is clear-cut and sharp. Long on the aftertaste, with fruity as well as mineral flavours; becomes slightly honey flavoured when the wine is more evolved
