Very pale and clear with classic citrus fruit aromas and a palate that exudes concentrated ripe, fruity, flavours before a crisp, tangy finish.
This is a superb Bergerac Sec from an un-oaked ‘Bordeaux’ blend of 70% Sauvignon and 30% Semillon. It is dry and fruity and what the locals call ‘vif’, with an attractive citrus fruit bouquet and a clean, zesty palate. I can testify beyond any shadow of a doubt, over numerous vintages, that it makes for decent holiday drinking and is a jolly versatile crowd-pleaser.‘The Domaine de l’Ancienne Cure is best known for its sweet whites, but has proven itself equally capable of making classy dry whites too.’Natasha Hughes – The Independent
