"Pronounced herbaceous notes that are accompanied by layers of lemon rind, green apple, sea salt and white flowers. There is also a strong underlining mineral backbone to the wine that carries it from beginning to finish. This is also quite more-ish, meaning you want to keep drinking more of it. In its youth now, it is more austere than past vintages in their youth, but will be incredibly powerful with time."

France is without doubt the world’s supreme wine-producing country, unmatched for the finesse, style and sheer diversity of its wines. France’s revered wine regions form a roll of honour beyond compare. The enduring appeal of France’s classic wine styles turns on the peculiarly French – and often controversial – concept of terroir, the belief in wine with a ‘sense of place’, with flavours and textures.
