The ideal temperature at which to serve a Cream is 12ºC. It may also be consumed as an aperitif, or as a cocktail served with ice and a slice of orange.

It is the ideal dessert wine; perfect to accompany fruit (melon, orange) pastries or ice-cream. It can also be paired very well with foie gras and blue cheeses.

  • Not only a dessert wine

    Delicious with pastries and fruit, but also with the foie.

  • Style of Glass

    Serve in a white wine glass, or wide rimmed glass with ice.
