Château Magneau blanc - Cuvée Julien | Graves
White wine | France, GRAVES | 2023
Brilliant, golden color with green glints. In the nose, delicious tender wood tones refreshed by the fine aroma of exotic fruits (mango and passion fruit), yellow peach and toasted bread. Soft, greasy, round and creamy in taste. Hugely refined dry white Bordeaux made according to the Terra Vitis method.
