A fresh, aromatic, slightly textured natural white - less intense than his orange wines, but still carrying Béguet’s signature energy and wild edge. Think: easy-drinking but not simple.

Fresh Impression Blanc 2023 is bright, expressive, and immediately inviting. The nose opens on fresh citrus - lemon peel and grapefruit - layered with yellow fruit and a light floral lift. There’s a subtle exotic edge, hinting at spice and aromatic varieties in the blend.

On the palate, it’s lively and juicy, driven by crisp acidity. The fruit stays fresh and vibrant - citrus and orchard fruit - carried by a slight mineral backbone. A touch of texture from partial skin contact adds grip without heaviness, giving the wine more dimension than a simple white.

The finish is clean, saline, and refreshing, with a gentle persistence that keeps it energetic and easy to drink.
