👁 In the Glass:
Pale gold with green glints—bright and poised.

👃 On the Nose:
Refined and aromatic. Classic aromas of honeycomb, green apple, almond, and a touch of wild herbs are underscored by flinty minerality and restrained fruit.

👅 On the Palate:
Medium-bodied and richly textured. Clean flavours of green apple, pear, and marzipan unfold across a lush, yet precise frame. A streak of minerality drives the wine to a long, refreshing, and savoury finish.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Ideal with roast poultry, scallops, goat cheese, or vegetable terrines. A superb partner for fine, complex dishes.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Delicious now, but will develop further nuance over 8–10+ years, gaining richness, depth, and a waxy, honeyed character.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
‘Clos de la Marche’ is a brilliant expression of Savennières—layered, mineral, and uncompromisingly pure. A serious white wine with soul, structure, and superb food affinity.
