ALLIANCES
The V.S.O.P. is a “pleasure” blend to be enjoyed as a digestif or as an aperitif. With a curdled cream cheese sweetened with honey, guarigette strawberries with cane sugar followed by a light coffee.
TASTING NOTES
Golden yellow in color, the V.S.O.P. is rich in aromas of ripe fruit, plum, pastry, vanilla, citrus. On the palate it is suave, delicate, with a good length.
