TastingSeductive golden colour with green highlights. The nose opens with a refined bouquet of white flowers, enriched with delicious hints of candied quince. The palate is fresh and balanced, revealing subtle notes of bitter almond and ending with a long, flavourful finish, enhanced by a hint of saltiness that gives it tension and elegance.

Detailed information
Vintage
A vintage with considerable sunshine in the Spring and Summer, similar to 2003. These conditions caused the vines to develop and ripen at a more accelerated pace. Flowering however took place relatively well and in good conditions. Welcome August rains stabilized the situation and allowed the harvest to take place between mid-August and mid-October. The result, from this atypical year, white wines ended up producing a very fine vintage, delicious and generous.

Terroir
Winemaking
The harvest took place early in the morning to preserve the primary aromas. Optimized settling of the lees to boost aromatic potential (between 3 and 6°C) before fermentation at low temperature (12 – 14°C). The ageing in vats lasts for 6 months before bottling.
Service
Enjoy in its early years to fully appreciate its fruity freshness, or within 4 to 5 years after harvest. Serve chilled between 10°C and 12°C.

Gabriel Meffre
Delicious and savoury from day one: this is the commitment of our Gabriel Meffre "signature" wines. For each appellation, and in keeping with the characteristics of the vintage, our know-how is recognisable through our experienced blending of "terroirs" and grape varieties and through our careful maturing, favouring purity of fruit and silkyness of texture. Already enjoyable in their first year after bottling, the Crus also have good aging potential.
