Tasting notes

Luscious golden wine with a complex nose and overtones of dried flowers, citrus and spice. Rich, rounded mouth : an intriguing blend of tangy herbs with hints of honey and apple. A sophisticated wine to enjoy as an aperitif, or with great fish dishes, Chinese cuisine, Roquefort, Stilton or creamy cheeses, tropical fruit, praline based desserts.

Marc-Andrea Levy, head Sommelier at Gordon Ramsay's Murano, says:
"Trelans - Definetely the next Puligny Montrachet of the south of France..."

Serve at: 12-14°C.
