Domaine Michel Briday, Bouzeron, Cuvée Axelle
The Bouzeron of the estate is distinguished by its aromatic finesse: the nose evokes cherry blossom, and more generally white flowers and citrus fruits. While this variety often gives light-body wines, this is not the case here. Control of the yields and a harvest at full maturity give a harmonious wine, endowed with a certain sweetness in hot vintage years.
