The vines selected are planted on clay and gravel soils. The altitude of these vineyards gives this wine unique finesse and elegance. Beautiful pale-yellow color with shiny green undertones. The bouquet is a delicate white-glesh fruit, citrus fruit, spring flowers, fresh with an attractive aromatic intensity. The mouth is full of freshness, rich with mineral acidity, and the finish is aromatic and mouth-watering.

The 2019 La Vieille Ferme Blanc begins with a pleasing aroma of tropical fruit, citrus and a touch of white flowers.
Taking a sip reveals a smooth and easy to drink with nice depth of flavor and similar flavors to the nose. It's rather simple but pretty darn satisfying and nice that it's not loaded with sugar.
It ends dry and a bit short, but overall this is a pretty tasty blend.
