Tasting Notes
Ripe pear emerges on the nose, accompanied by subtle honeysuckle accents. On the palate, its fat, generous texture caresses the palate, highlighting intense flavors of ripe pear, peach, apricot, orange blossom, citrus and a delicate woody touch. The finish is harmoniously balanced, leaving a soft mineral imprint that lingers pleasantly on the palate.
Method
The grapes are picked in multiple passes as they ripen. Once harvested, the grapes are chilled to 8°C and undergo a short maceration period of 12 to 24 hours to extract aromatic complexity. The grapes are then gently pressed and the juice is fermented for 15-30 days.
