VINIFICATION
The grapes were carefully hand-harvested into 15 kg boxes. After a thorough selection on the sorting table, the whole clusters underwent a short maceration at low temperature, followed by a gentle pressing. Part of the must was fermented in new 500- and 600- liter oak barrels, as well as 3,000-liter foudres, and then aged on its fine lees for six months to enhance texture and complexity.
TASTING NOTES
Brilliant pale gold in color, copious apples and pears infused with mouthwatering aromas of lemon, outstanding fruit with a touch of honey beautifully focused and mineral. The attack is rich and broad packed with ripe citrus concentration, dense and fleshy, very good acidity with a long finish.
FOOD PAIRING
This white wine is an ideal accompaniment to all kinds of fish, shellfish, white meats, vegetables, rices and salads.
