Pale gold in colour with floral notes on the nose (honeysuckle, peony, hawthorn) and flavours of apricot and dried fruit on the palate. It boasts considerable aromatic intensity and is all about finesse, lightness and elegance.
This Roussanne is best served at 10°- 12°C on its own or as the perfect match for scallops, white meats in light sauces, salmon, gnocchi in threecheese sauce, eggplant tart or goat’s milk cheese.
