About Lille’s Blanc:
Lillet, classed as an aromatised wine within EU law, is a French wine-based aperitif from Podensac. It is a blend of 85% Bordeaux region wines and 15% macerated liqueurs, mostly citrus liqueurs. The mix is then stirred in oak vats until blended. During the aging process, Lillet is handled as a Bordeaux wine.
It’s the core Lillet product: all the freshness of an aperitif with a smooth and fruity taste and a full, fleshy structure.
