Anjou Ephata Chenin Terre de l'Elu, Biodynamic wine, 100% Chenin Blanc, barrel fermented, this is a crystal wine of great aromatic purity. A subtle nose reveals fresh aromas and exotic fruit. The attack is silky and enveloping and stretches to iodine notes. This is a Chenin with an almost tannic structure, elegant and unusual, a great wine with food. Serve with a cod or sea bream carpaccio with chermoula dressing (coriander, mint, lemon, olive oil, garlic, paprika). Typically good with fish, white meat or poultry cooked with lemon... or on exotic dishes. Open up to the charm of Ephata, the wine will do the rest!
