Raoul's White Blend 2015

A vibrant and lively white blend made from grapes that were picked earlier to produce a fresh, fruity and balanced wine. It shows great finesse and roundness on the palate and can be enjoyed as an excellent aperitif or lunchtime wine, endlessly versatile and best served well chilled.

Goes well with seafood, salad and light lunches. Try beetroot and goat’s cheese salad or even grilled white fish with lemon and artichoke. Another great combination to enhance the clean, green aromas of this white blend is crayfish.
