This single vineyard is located in the Touraine Oisly appellation, a small appellation of 40 hectares. At first glance, the pale gold hue displays platinum reflections. A delicate nose opens with notes of grapefruit, followed by quince and other fruits. The palate is rich and fresh, where lychee and the fruit of passion emerge, all based on a subtle balance between structure and roundness. The finish offers a hint of candied mandarin. This mineral and complex Sauvignon Blanc pairs perfectly with pike-perch fillet or monkfish with creamy sauce, local crayfish, or walnut scallops, all served with basmati rice.
