Melon n°2
Off-dry white, floral and fresh
Off-dry white, floral and fresh
Melon n°2, a blend that strikes the perfect balance: the floral sweetness of gros manseng meets the zesty freshness of melon de bourgogne. Each grape is vinified separately, then the two wines are blended into one. Tony's favourite cuvée!
