Tasting Note: In white (Chardonnay), a light gold wine, limpid and lively, honeyed or lemony, with hints of lime blossom and lily then dried fruit, often toasted, after a few years. The palate is fine, divided between mellowness and acidity which give the Givry appellation good aging potential and good length in the mouth.
