AOC SAUMUR
Straw yellow color with green reflection. The nose is of white flower, the maturity of the chenin is intense, notes of citrus fruits arrive in the end. In the mouth, the long bodied wine makes believe in residual sugar but the wine is dry. The attack is clear, the length is not very important and the complexity quite simple.
