Benoit Girardin Savigny-Les-Baune Blanc Vieille Vignes

Benoit Girardin Savigny-Les-Baune Blanc Vieille Vignes is light golden yellow in color with emerald green highlights. The nose is floral and airy. The bouquet is reminiscent of butter and brioche with notes of lemon, grapefruit and the occasional hint of minerality. A lively attack helps make this a clean, uncomplicated wine, quite fleshy, persistent and occasionally with a hint of spice.
