WINEMAKER'S NOTE
Sweet naturally sparkling wine, elaborated from a selection of south-west oriented terroirs of white marls, to foster its vivacity rather than its muscat flavours. Rich exotic fruit, floral and citrus aromas (grapefruit / rose).
WINEMAKING
Elaborated from a selection of south-west oriented terroirs of white marls, to foster its vivacity rather than its muscat flavours. The Gamay undergoes a one week cold maceration during which occurs the pressing. The slow fermentation of all the juices is activated by indigenous yeast kept under temperature control. A second fermentation in the bottle is enhanced by the grapes’ residual sugars, with no adding of a tirage liqueur. After four months in the bottle the sediment is taken out.
WINE AND FOOD PAIRING
Serve cold (8°C), share with friends as a pre-dinner drink or paired with such
desserts as a strawberry tart or a fruit salad.
