Mas Oncle Ernest Les Safres de Mon Enfance (White)
More from this producer: Mas Oncle Ernest
2024
Pale lemon. Floral notes on the nose, slightly leesy with restrained, slightly bruised orchard fruit. Red apples and a hint of pink apples. Some leesy character softens the acidity, but it is ultimately a fresh white wine. Simple, fresh, fruity, clearly trying to go the next step.
