About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from a former cherry orchard at 340–370 m above sea level. The vineyard has a southeast exposure and clay-limestone soils. Almost constant winds from the slopes of the French Alps aid ripening.

Vinification

After harvest, the grapes are gently pressed without exposure to oxygen. The must ferments in stainless-steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine rests for seven months.

Tasting profile

The ageing gives the wine a softer texture.

Serving and pairing

Suitable as an aperitif and with salads, appetisers, fish, seafood and shellfish.
