Structured, lively dry whites with a pale golden colour, an elegant palate with preserved acidity and signature aromas of citrus (lemon), white flowers, stone fruits and spicy Pyrenean notes.

The word of the wine: Powdery mildew
Disease of the vine due to a fungus. Less dreadful than mildew, it only attacks the surface of the green parts. Sulphur has long been the best remedy.
