History
Grape variety
Vinification and maturing
After racking the wine, the fermentation and ageing processes take place partly in oak barrels, parlty in vats. We use a proportion of 10% new oak barrels and 35% of 1-3 years-old barrels. Through regular stirring, the contact with the oak and lees will give the wine its roundness and woody side.
The remaining 55% is aged in stainless-steel vats, to preserve the freshness of the wine.
Tasting notes
Color: Pale gold
Nose: Floral aromas of hawthorn and acacia, with a tinge of lemon.
Palate: Floral wine with woody notes and a touch of citrus. The finale is rich with a sensation of roundness in the mouth.
Wine and food pairing
This wine will be perfect paired with charcuterie platters (ham or pâtés) or sea food (scallop-shells, salmon). It can also be drunk with hot first courses, such as quiches and pies, or with dry cheeses (goat’s cheese for instance).
