Etienne Seignovert & Thibaud Capellaro - Ombre & Lumière

from £43.00

This captivating wine is a brilliant collaboration between Thibaud Capellaro and Etienne Seignovert, two young winegrowers from the north of the Rhône valley. They’ve masterfully crafted a wine that is irresistibly fresh and fun. Bursting with fresh cherry and strawberry, complemented by vibrant tropical notes of mango and passion fruit, and a delicate hint of elderflower. On the palate, it’s wonderfully rounded, with refreshing acidity and a finish that lingers elegantly. This is a wine that’s almost too easy to enjoy.
