Tasting note
A rich, sweet white wafting flowers into the nostrils and citrus and exotic fruits onto the tongue.
Viticulture
Clay-limestone with some schist materials as well as siliceous pebble. Soil perfectly suited for the production of high quality wines. Age of the vines: 30 years-old. Yields: 20hl/ha.
Vinification
After direct pressing, alcoholic fermentation begins at 18°C and is stopped in the liquid phase by adding neutral alcohol. The wine is 15% ABV with 114.5g/L residual sugar. Natural fruit sugars are retained, with fortification timed to achieve a doux or demi-sec style, while maintaining the required 15-18% ABV.
Food Match
This wine can see a meal thorugh from cheese dishes such as blue cheese and spiced walnut terrine or desserts such as cheesecake mousse with rum-poached plums or poached pears with sweet wine.
