This cuvée "Les Figuiers" comes from old vines planted on limestone soils, from which it derives its freshness and liveliness. Exclusively aged in oak barrels on the lees, the wine has acquired a beautiful harmonious structure through this process. Subtlety, aromatic richness, fruit, and liveliness: optimal conditions for delighting the taste buds. A interplay of flavors of yellow fruits, almonds, and floral notes with a salty finish. A drop that you can open today for the pleasure of your guests, but that can also be aged for more than a decade.
