The wine
Les Granits reveals a golden yellow color. A mineral nose with floral notes of honeysuckle and lily in its youth, Tabasco, wax, honey. On the palate it is well balanced with great harmony for a finely spicy finish which will develop on honey with age. Depending on the vintage, the wine can be kept for 30 to 60 years, or even 50 to 75 years.
