Soil composition |
Partly composed of sandstones of Eocene origin originating from the uplift of the seabed 50 million years ago and partly pebble-rich, deep alluvial soils. |
Harvest |
By hand, from mid-August to the first decade of September. |
Vinification |
A small portion of the crushed grapes (15%), benefits from a short cold maceration sheltered from the air. The juice obtained from the soft pressing of the grapes is left to decant for 24-48 hours. Alcoholic fermentation then begins on clear must, conducted at 18°C for 15 days. Vinification is carried out in steel vats, keeping the wine at low temperatures, thus avoiding malolactic fermentation. |
Ageing |
4 months on the noble lees, which are frequently stirred. |
Pairing |
Excellent with asparagus dishes, green and white. Also interesting is the combination with fish and vegetable tempura. |
