Tasting note
A golden dessert wine with very typical Muscat characters on the nose. The wine shows upfront aromas of pineapple, citrus, apricots, a touch of honey and subtle floral notes. The palate is lush with the perfect balance between sweetness and fresh acidity.
Viticulture
Muscat de Frontignan vines planted in 1986 with a density of 3074 plants per hectares. The trellis is vertican hedge with 2 buds spur pruning and supplementary irrigation.
Vinification
The bunches were destalked, crushed and allowed to ferment for 24 hours on the skins. The fermenting must went through a slow 3 hours press cycle and the turbid juice carried on fermentation in Stainless steel tanks.
Food Match
Enjoy with dessert or some fine handcrafted cheeses.
