Domaine l'Aigle à Deux Têtes Les Clous Naturé 2023

Lean, radiant and compelling. Bright gold in the glass with aromas of green apple, lemon verbena and wild herbs, underpinned by flinty minerality. On the palate it’s taut and zesty, with crisp citrus, dried fruit facets and a mouth‑watering finish that leaves you wanting more.
