Hericot Vert with Pancetta
The generous addition of Merlot brings smooth tannins and Cabernet Sauvignon enhances its juicy ripe berry flavors
The wine comes from a very small parcel located in the climate of "Les Quarts" benefiting from an eastern exposure that is perfectly suited to Chardonnay
This opens beautifully with time
Ideal temperature to drink: 50-53°F
