At the cellar
The brief skin contact maceration of 6 to 12 hours is followed by low temperature, long and controlled fermentation. The absence of any malolactic fermentation retains the freshness and subtle aromas of this grape variety.
Notes
Golden-yellow colour with subtle orange hues and a bouquet of ripe fruits (quince, pear). In the mouth it is rounded, mineral and has incredible complexity and persistency.
Pairing
- Exotic dishes and curries
- Mushroom dishes, such as cassoulet
- Desserts such as fruit tarts
