Description

With this Juliénas, Valentin Montanet (La Soeur Cadette) has produced a delicate and refined expression of this appellation. Floral notes of violet and peony accompany the wine from start to finish. The fruit is precise, the palate juicy, and the whole is imbued with a delightful tension. A sheer delight!
