Tasting Notes

Adorned in its brilliant, pale green-yellow hue, Dourthe Grands Terroirs Sauvignon boasts a delicate bouquet of fruit and floral aromas. Lively and harmonious on the finish. This white stands apart for its intensely aromatic bouquet of citrus fruits and white flowers. Its nervy attack leads on to a well balanced palate. [www.dourthe.com]
