Domaine de la Touraize White Macvin

26.00 

"A subtle blend of alcohol, melon and nutty notes, without the slightest hint of harshness. This macvin is perfectly integrated, with a lovely balance between the richness of the juice, sweetness and aromatic expression. Enjoy on its own as an aperitif, with foie gras, or paired with melon and cured ham. In a cocktail with a Crémant du Jura. As a dessert with a Tarte Tatin and a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or a walnut cake."
