Viticulture

France is one of the most important wine growing nations in the world. The heart of its viticultural heritage is the concept of “Terroir”. The term describes how a grape variety expresses itself in terms of flavour, aromas and colour, when the vines are grown in ideal conditions (well suited soils, winds, temperatures…). The vintner’s winemaking skills also play an important role. France offers a fascinating diversity of Terroirs like no other country. This Vin de France is sourced from the Gascony area.

Winemaking

The grapes are harvested early in the season. After a gentle pneumatic pressing, with extraction of the premium free-run juices only, the juice is clarified before being fermented. Temperature-controlled fermentation between 16°C to 18°C occurs in stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation is stopped to preserve the freshness of the wine. It is then aged for 4 months on its fine lees with regular stirring before bottling.

Oak Ageing

No oak ageing

Tasting Note

Pale lemon colour, with refreshing and intense floral aromas as well as fresh peach, citrus and green apple. The mouth is creamy with well-balanced acidity and a vivid finish.

Food Matching

Enjoy this wine chilled, as an aperitif or with goat cheese, calamari, and grilled fish.
