OUR OPINION: rich and fragrant vintage, I love it!
Other available vintage :
The Savagnin cuvée is a blend of two plots : En Spois, located in Arbois village and and La Vasée, located in Montigny-Lès-Arsures. Two different places, two marly terroirs but of different ages:
The vines have been cultivated according the biodynamics principles since 2004 and cared by use of preparations and herbal teas that the estate produces itself.
The grapes are harvested manually, destemmed and then pressed by pneumatic pressing. A light sulphits dose is added and the must is left for a short settling period.
It is then drawn off in vats where alcoholic fermentation starts spontaneously by the native yeasts action, followed by the malolactic fermentation.
The must is then matured for 33 months on its lees in 228-liter barrels.
No topping is practiced, the wine is aged in an oxidative manner, under its yeast veil. It is then lightly filtered before bottling. No sulphits are added at bottling.
