Description

Lillet is a range of refreshing aperitifs with a smooth, fruity taste. The main grape variety in Lillet Blanc is semillon, which gives it a full, fleshy structure.

Lillet Blanc is similar to sauternes. Its color is a golden, shining yellow. It is flowery with a hint of honey and aromas of candied orange, pine resin, lime and fresh mint. Its taste is fresh, bold and fruity with an appealing aroma intensity and lingering aftertaste.

Oranges, herbs and hints of flowers are pungent and balanced in the nose. Sweet on the tongue with flavors exploding into bright citrus flesh, piquant zest and earthy and aromatic herbs for balance. The finish leaves orange scented aromas lingering on the palate.A light, breezy aperitif for white wine lovers. This golden-orange liquid has a tart apple and citrus scent, with a touch of honeysuckle behind that, and a honeyed flavor with a dry, faintly spiced finish. Light-bodied and drinkable, made even more so with the addition of lime juice and club soda. Pair with cheese or charcuterie. - K.N.
