Vignobles Berthier - MAGNUM | Sancerre
White wine | France, LOIRE | 2020
Light color with green hues. The ripe grapes provide an intense and original aroma: impressions of white flowers, oranges and grapefruit, with hints of flint. Smooth and fresh on the palate (citrusy) with a hint of orange jam and a nice freshness in the end. After some evolution, more exotic fruits (lychee) appear and the minerality emerges.
