On the palate, Calvet Vouvray is crisp and refreshing, with a medium body and a balanced acidity. It showcases flavors of citrus fruits, such as lemon and grapefruit, as well as a touch of quince and mineral undertones. Calvet Vouvray pairs exceptionally well with seafood, particularly shellfish like oysters and scallops. Its vibrant acidity and fruity notes also make it a great match for Asian cuisine, fried foods, and soft cheeses.
