Limestone, soapy nose that clears to a great minerality and crispness.

Beautiful "Vin de pays" expression of Viognier. Classic stone fruit and honeysuckle and mineral backbone with a finish of fruit cocktail syrup.

Slightly pungent and sakty on the nose with tropical fruit and floral notes. Soft and pretty with peach, apricot and melon flavors. Mellow, with gentle balancing acidity and a stony finish.
