Always based on a number of white varieties, in this lovely 2022 vintage the blend is:
46% Chenin Blanc, 20% Chardonnay, 14% Sauvignon Blanc, 10% Roussanne, 8% Viognier and 2% Marsanne
These component parts are brought together with barrel fermentation and lees ageing for 12 months to make a rounded, well-balanced and complex white wine. There is lovely richness of ripe peach and apricot fruit, with toasty and creamy notes and bright fresh finish. Subtle hints of fennel, quince and spices add further intrigue to this wonderfully complex white. Superb paired with chicken in tarragon cream sauce or fish pie.
