Situation

Situated on the left bank of the Serein river, the Côte de Léchet benefits from a south easterly exposure to the sun. Thanks to this sun exposure the very feeble and pebbly soils produce small yields and early-ripening grapes .

Tasting note

The wine is clean and bright with a pale golden robe tinged with green. The nose offers delicate floral and mineral notes and in the mouth, the wine is lively, very mineral and shows the perfect balance between tension and elegance. Ideal served with seafood, fish and white meat.
