Tasting notes

Delicate yellow with greenish reflections. The nose is caressed by wonderfully aromatic impressions: plenty of citrus notes, herbal-spicy nuances and a hint of exoticism. The palate reveals a juicy, creamy structure that is characterized by the bâtonnage. The finish is long, fresh and complex.

Details

The aroma of the noble cuvée is reminiscent of grapefruit, passion fruit and white peach with a touch of fresh almonds on the finish. Well-balanced acidity - an all-round refreshing drinking pleasure.

Recommendation

This white wine is particularly enjoyable with grilled Mediterranean fish, all kinds of seafood and light meat.

Vinification

The grapes were hand-picked in the early hours of the morning and transported to the winery in 15-kilo containers, where they were immediately cooled to preserve their full aromatic potential. After careful selection, the grapes were pressed slowly and gently, with particular attention being paid to protecting them from oxidation. After a clarification period of around 12 hours, 23% of the must was transferred to new barriques and 27% to used barriques, the remaining 50% to steel, concrete or wooden containers. Alcoholic fermentation did not exceed 22°C. No malolactic fermentation was used. During the 6-month aging period, the sediment was stirred at set intervals. Before bottling, the different batches were blended together and lightly fined. The wine then underwent a final refinement in the bottle for 12 months before being released onto the market.
