The body is full, lush and rich. Fruits are; lemon, green melon, lime, white peach, passion fruit, grapefruit & pineapple. Honey notes, beeswax, vanillin with beautiful, more pronounced delicate soft minerality and chalkiness, a touch of white spice with spring & yellow fragrant florals. The acidity is round and really good. The rich, balanced, well polished finish is delicious. Nice Egyptian white.

Just like the African Bush, don’t come to the Egyptian Desert without it.
Celebrating the ending of a great trip on the eve of our last day at The Old Cataract on the Nile River with one of our very favorite N/V Rosé Champange’s.
