With age, the elegant fruit and flowers play support to the spice. A new Foillard perspective.

Beautiful wine. So herbaceous and floral with mineral undertones and seamless high toned fruit. I could drink this everyday

This is what I'm talking about! Mushroomy funk. Juicy. Best of the flight of 10 crus. Perfect balance.

Deliciously lush and fruity with minerality coming through on the finish. This wine is a joy to drink.
