Grape: Roussanne
Vineyard: 15 years old vines on on limestone and clay originating from ancient Quaternary alluvial terraces at around 100 m altitude.
Winemaking: The grapes are gently pressed and a light debourbage by cold is made. The clear must is vatted for the fermentation which takes place in concrete tanks. After aging for 5 months the wine is bottled by gravity, without filtration or fining, with just a light sulfur addition.
Personality: generous honeysuckle and cantaloupe aromas, pleasantly round with good acidity. Perfect on its own or with all kinds of finger food and easy light dishes.
