Description

Viticulture

Soils: Clay-loam and rolled pebbles Production area: 1.5 hectares Average age of the vine: from 20 to 30 years Planting density: from 3300 to 4000 vines / hectare Pruning method: Royat and goblet Yield: 20 hectoliters / hectare By hands in small boxes. First control of the grapes on the vine. Harvest is isolated in a cold room. Whole bunch pressing. Harvest date between August 23 and September 5.

Vinification

Grape varieties vinified separately in thermo-regulated stainless-steel vats. Cold stabilization, settling and start of alcoholic fermentation maintained between 16° and 18°C

Wine aging

100% aging in 500-liter barrels for 9 months.

Tasting notes

Intense and golden color. The aroma is floral and subtle. On the palate, a nice tension is expressed, followed by complex and persistent aromas. The aging in barrels gives this wine a beautiful structure and a lot of roundness. We recommend it on a red tuna tataki with sesame. Serve between 11 and 14°.
