Description
Coming from a limestone terroir, Mont Embrasé is a signature of Jean-Louis and Jean-Christophe Bersan. Their estate, in conversion to organic farming since its creation in 2009, knows how to highlight its roots. Sauvignon finds its place in this elegant cuvée with a slightly vanilla nose. The palate is warm with its fruitiness of yellow apple. A complex wine, to accompany Asian cuisine from now on.

This is pure fruitiness but with a tense, tight structure underneath.The fresh exterior is all citrus fruits and acidity, while behind lies a texture that demands aging. It’s impressive, rich and worth waiting for. Drink from 2018.

Solidly built, with lemon pulp and grapefruit rind notes framing a rich core of creamed yellow apple and white peach. Nice minerality drives the finish. Barrel Sample: 90-93 Points

Another full-throttle 2012 dry white, this 2012 offers lots of honeysuckle notes as well as a full-bodied mouthfeel and beautiful purity, elegance and length. Lemon zest, grapefruit and subtle wood characteristics are found in both the aromatic and flavor profiles. Barrel Sample: 90-92 Points
