This biodynamic wine offers aromas of tart green apples, celery and lime. A pleasant palate leads to flavours of lime zest, pear and gooseberries with a short yet concentrated finish.Antonio Galloni’s Vinous: “The 2020 Saint-Bris Exogyra Virgula, which was taken from tank, has a light apple blossom bouquet with a lovely lemon thyme scent. The palate is fresh, vibrant and very saline, delivering good density and flavors of green apple mixed with pear toward the finish. Superb.” Bottle750ml, CorkVarietalSauvignon, BlancAlcohol12.7%Region Saint Bris, Burgundy
