Wine Facts
Winemaker Notes
The vines have a medium age of 20 years and are grown using both Gobelet and trellis-trained systems. Good weather defined the 2019 vintage, leading to a wine with extraordinary balance. The 2019 harvest was also defined by a large harvest, with high quality. Hand-harvested between the end of September and the beginning of October. The grapes are gently pressed and undergo a 3-hour skin maceration to achieve high aroma intensity. Most of the wine is fermented in stainless-steel vats under temperature control in order to enhance its freshness. A small percentage was fermented and aged in French oak barrels.
Serving Hints
This wine is ideal by the glass, as an aperitif served at around 48° F (9° C). It also pairs perfectly with tapas- style appetizers, green and fruit salads, cold soups, sushi, steamed shellfish, all kinds of fish (especially grilled fish), seafood paellas and pastas.
