The Marcillet's employ sustainable winemaking techniques that encompass the surrounding eco-system so all the natural elements within the vineyard work in harmony with nature. The grapes are harvested by hand at their maximum ripeness, gently pressed in a 100 year old winepress and aged in old, neutral oak where the wine undergoes 6 to 9 months of direct contact with fine lees.

Light straw colored in the glass with an almost transparent edge around the rim of the glass. Inviting scents of white stone fruits, pulverized mineral notes and a hint of wet stones grace the richly expressive nose. The palate is a delectable expression of white fruits, ripe melon flesh and a hint of citrus zest. This white has great natural acidity that really sets off the green apple and creamy white peach quality on the finish. This gem is light enough to enjoy by itself and packs more than enough elegance to serve with grilled river fish, seared scallops and even roast chicken.
