Crystalline colour with clear reflections. The nose is open and mineral with floral notes reminiscent of hawthorn in springtime. The wine has a nice length. The attack on the palate is fresh and pleasant. A lively wine on the finish.

Estate
Cistercian monks introduced wine-growing to La Côte region. The monks of Bonmont abbey were given this land in the 12th century and quickly transformed it into vineyards.
The estate entered the history of Lausanne at the beginning of the 19th century, in 1802, when the City acquired it during the sale of national properties.
Situated between Mont-sur-Rolle and Perroy, Abbaye de Mont, with its 13.5 hectares, is the largest wine estate in Lausanne.
One of the main turning points for the estate was the transition to biodynamics. Synthetic molecules are now banned and replaced by plant extracts, decoctions and herbal teas, energised and used by following lunar and planetary rhythms.
