On the other hand, the 2018 cuvées of Gros Plant look very promising, at least equal to those of the 2017 vintage. In fact, they have reached ideal ripeness and are even full-bodied.

Blending on the best vintages
It must be drunk in its youth but it retains its freshness and character for at least 2 to 3 years. Its lemony aromas, its frank and lively character in the mouth, make it unbeatable on a platter of oysters, or even seafood.
It is also a good companion for grilled fish or cooked in foil.
Lovers of Kir will appreciate it for its lightness and freshness, it is also remarkable as a basic white wine for your cocktails (white sangria,…)
