Tasting notes

JS-15 Pouilly-Fume unveils a floral bouquet imbued with acacia and marine nuances. The palate harmonizes ripe tangerine with luscious pastry undertones, and mouthwatering iodine lengths.
A great wine that goes well with many dishes, white meats and fish.

The grapes are rigorously selected and gently pressed to preserve the aromatic potential of the fruit. Alcoholic fermentation performed in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats for 85% of the juice, with the remaining 15% fermenting in Troncais oak barrels. Aged on fine lees for 12 months. After a resting period, bottled in early summer.
