Description
91 James Suckling
Effusive nose of ripe melon, apricot and orange blossom. Medium-bodied with ample ripeness, but a light-footed personality with lively acidity.
Pair with grilled fish, Asian cuisine such as yakitoris, tempuras, or poke bowls. Can also be enjoyed as an aperitif.
This wine is a blend of 4 varietals : Viognier which brings aromatic richness
and roundness, white Grenache and the Marsanne bring notes of white
flowers and fruits, and Clairette for acidity.
• 30% Viognier
• 30% White Grenache
• 30% Marsanne
• 10% Clairette
The grapes are picked early in the morning and fully destemmed. The
pressing is soft to extract only the most noble juices. The fermentation
takes place in thermo-regulated stainless-steel vats. The malolactic
fermentation is not wanted for this wine in order to preserve all the
aromatic freshness. The wine is aged 6 months in vats on fine lees before
being bottled.
