Winemaking Notes: Each terroir is vinified separately. Grapes are harvested at night to preserve freshness. They are destemmed before a short skin contact or a direct pressing. Fermentation temperature is maintained between 15°C to 18°C (59° F to 64°F) to retain fruits aromas. The different terroirs are blended after fermentation and then aged in stainless steel vats. Wine is bottled during winter and spring.

Tasting notes:
Yellow color with green glints. Nose of fresh fruits. Notes of citrus and white peach. Elegant wine combining roundness and freshness. Drink young. Serve it chilled on its own or with shellfish, fish, white meat, hard cheeses.
