Chante Cigale Cicada Blanc
£12.95
Delicate balance of citrus, white flowers, and pear flavors. Unoaked and easy to drink, it has a ripe, round finish with a nice weight on the palate. Cicada takes its name from the famed ‘singing cicadas’ of Provence and the wine too sings of the warm vineyards of the south.
Ideal with goat cheese, coconut based Thai and Vietnamese dishes, or as a delicious foil to barbecued or grilled mackerel.
