A great buy: Lillet (pronounced lee-lay), is a French Aperitif made from a blend of wine, liqueurs, fruits & herbs. It originated in the French village of Podensac & has been made since the late 1800s. Lillet Blanc is made from white wine & is drier than Lillet Rouge, its red-wine counterpart. Both are classically served over ice with an orange twist. Lillet is a blend of rigorously selected wines & fruit liqueurs, aged in oak vats for around 12 months, during which it is given the same care as the Grands Crus (great wines) of Bordeaux. Lillet Blanc has a golden colour with candied orange, honey, pine resin, lime & fresh mint aromas. Full & rich on the palate with a lovely, long aftertaste. Always serve well chilled in a Bordeaux wine glass... zest with a slice of orange or lime. Perfect with snacks & desserts! Lillet blanc is the key ingredient in James Bond's Martini derivative, the Vesper, a drink created in deference to the beautiful double agent in Ian Fleming's Casino Royale & reffered to as Kina Lillet. ...

Like Lillet Blanc, the main grape variety in Lillet Rose is Semillon. These wines are combined with natural liqueurs, handcrafted in Podensac from sweet & bitter oranges & berries. It is this meticulously balanced blend that gives Lillet Rose its delicate aromas.

Colour: Brilliant rose. Nose: Light aromas of berries, orange blossom & grapefruit. Mouth: Fresh, lively & fruity. Balanced structure. Slightly acidic. Finish: Long aromas.
