Pouilly-Fumé Blanc AOP - J. De Villebois

The young wine then matures for about six months in stainless steel tanks on its fine lees. Color: Pale yellow with greenish reflections; Aroma: Ripe fruit, citrus blossom, paired with the typical mineral flint note; Taste: Invigorating freshness, citrus aromas, saline minerality, long finish
