Château Maravenne Grande Réserve (White)

  • 2025

    Very pale lime yellow. Restrained on the nose with soft, pretty lemon aromas, a touch of citrus blossom, crunchy green apples, and slightly leafy herbal notes. On the palate, almost sweet ripe pears and pineapple meet a fresh, elegant, mineral, and electric profile. Crunchy and zippy with lovely precision. It is simple but fresh and pretty, certainly a wine for those looking for minerality and freshness first and foremost. Very well-made, very crisp, very lovely.
