On the nose, it is fresh and expressive, with aromas of lemon, grapefruit, peach and apricot, complemented by a delicate floral note. Roussanne contributes a creamy texture and subtle spiced character, while Grenache adds an aromatic, floral lift.\n\nOn the palate, lively freshness is balanced by gentle body and a smooth, rounded finish. Its combination of citrus energy, soft stone-fruit notes and understated creaminess makes it both elegant and versatile. Best enjoyed young, when its freshness and aromatic precision are at their most vivid, although it should develop additional softness over the short term.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes are sourced from a single property in the heart of the Laudun appellation, where stony limestone soils contribute freshness, finesse and mineral definition.
