Sea grassy Saivignon Blanc nose. Slight sweetness of Alcase Riesling with Jasmine flowers and salty lemon. Elegant and refined. Lovely yet lively sipper on a cool breezy evening. Truly classy and pure through and through. A great finisher for an evening of high life loving white blends.

Pretty straight forward Chenin Blanc. But good value for money. Balanced, fresh and lite. Nice summer wine with classic label.

Tasting the 2019. Very young but fresh with nice melon notes.
