Tasting Note

At first swirl, aromatics of honeydew, watermelon and pineapple spring forward from the glass with floral notes of jasmine and honeysuckle. On the palate, the wine has refreshing flavours of cucumber, lime and nectarine with hints of geranium, sweet basil and ripe orange. The mouthfeel is soft yet inviting, with a lively acidity. This classic, Loire Valley-style wine is excellent when paired with fresh oysters, seafood, or just about anything!
