Tasting note
Such an exciting and complex mélange of aromas - passionfruit, lemon curd, toast, crème brûlée, cinnamon and poached pear. In the mouth, it has a creamy, suave texture, cut across by vibrant acidity. Fabulous length of flavour, with amazing concentration on the finish. It just lasts and lasts on the palate. What a wine!
Viticulture
Pruning trellising: double and simple Guyot. Harvesting is manual with bunch selection in the vineyard. The whites are vinified and matured in barrels (40% new) on their fine lees with stirring during 8 to 12 months.
Vinification
After manual harvesting, the grapes from different parcels are vinified separately. Pumping over and maceration depend on the tasting of each tank. Blending is done at the end of winter. Then the wine is matured in oak barrels and bottled after 10 to 12 months.
Food Match
Enjoy a chilled glass with shell fish, oysters, clams, mussels, sushi.
