| Straw yellow. Creamy mousse and delicate, persistent cascade of bubbles. The nose is very ample and generous, releasing notes of ripe fruit, such as pear, yellow apple, and melon. Superb balance and finesse complement crisp, refreshing aromas. The palate is pleasantly tart and full-flavored, with a crisp fruitiness. Admirable fullness, balance, and length, closely mirroring the aromatics of the nose. Ideal as an aperitif and for celebratory toasts, accompanied by any kind of appetizer or snacks. |

| The 2017 Dissonance exudes aromas of pear, honeydew melon, acacia, honeycomb, apricot and pineapple. This wine shares bright acidity and vibrant flavors of pear, gooseberry and honey on the midpalate. The finish is long with pear and cantaloupe in a slow to fade crescendo. Sourced from vineyards in the Carneros region of Napa Valley, this cool climate Sauvignon Blanc is richly complimented through aging and stirring of the lees in French oak barrels. |

| The resulting wine shows intense notes of flowers, fruits and minerals from the soil. This wine is fresh, very fruity, round, and balanced, with a very long finish.
A wine that is characterised above all by its enormous versatility. It combines very well with foods with floral touches, with aromatic herbs, pepper, anise or cinnamon, balsamic touches, toast or pastries, and also with robust, meaty fish.
The most suitable cooking methods… it is difficult to make a selection… it is a wine conceived to accompany everything! But we could single out stews and casseroles, spicy dishes and risottos. |

| Elegant aromas of raspberry, plum, and cassis; with a touch of cedar and vanilla. The mouth is layered with rich flavors of ripe cherries, red currants, and berry jam. Ripe tannins focus the palate and provide a lengthy finish of spice and red fruit. |
