Pale gold color, slightly aqua green, which can color to light straw. Its nose evokes acacia, white flowers. The mineral aromas (flint, flint) complete, with lemon, its classic bouquet. On the palate, its pointed roundness, its structured body, its greedy vivacity reveal the typicity of the grape variety of the Bouzeron appellation.

Its pointed roundness enhances veal and poultry in white or cream sauce as well as mushroom risottos. The Bouzeron appellation is served as an aperitif with good gougères or with starters: parsley ham, mixed salads, quiches ... The Bouzeron appellation goes perfectly with most goats, Beaufort, Comté and cîteaux.
