Tasting note
Fragrant with white and orange blossom, rich nuances of ripe peach, nectarine and apricot framed by hints of sweet spice. The palate is rich and textural with a bright balancing acidity, incredibly elegant and refined.
Vineyard
South/southeast-facing vines in terraces overlooking the village of Chavanay and Verlieu in the middle of the Condrieu AOP. “La Petite Côte” is not a district but a cuvee brand.
Viticulture
Naturel cover cropping to avoid erosion. No insecticides with respect of soil and vine balance, few treatments (depending on weather and the necessary) and small amount of organic fertilizer. Vigour and yield control, leaf-thinning and green harvesting to promote grape ripening. Disbudding on the spring.
Vinification
Plot harvest and vinification. The grapes are picked when fully ripe and hand-sorted. After pressing, they are alcoholic with native yeasts and then malolactic fermented in barrels and big cask with temperatures control. Maturing 9 months in barrels and big cask, on the lees, no racking and stirring.
Food Match
Enjoy with sushi or seared tuna. Also pairs well with heartier meats such as pichana steak and pork belly.
