While it is not on the label, this is straight up muscat à petits grains. Light-weight, beautifully aromatic and palpably dry, this is the sort of wine served as an apero while staring at the Mediterranean, from the Languedoc to the Côte d’Azur. Honey blossom, jasmine, musk, grape spice, dill and a rub of citrus unwind across a talcy palate. Delicious drinking.

Aromas of cut grass, lemon juice and peel and fresh-picked sage make a fresh impression on the nose, as well as lychee and honey. The palate has a smooth, softly fleshy feel with pear pastry. Fresh finish.

Pale straw, clear and bright color with aromas of Jasmine, musk, fresh cut hay. Grapefruit, cucumber, lime juice, lemon barley. Finishes with a touch of chalk and talc. Clean, dry, refreshing and zesty, it’s a “petit” white, great fun drinking.
