Vinification
The grapes were harvested at night to preserve maximum freshness. Upon arrival at the winery, they were gently pressed and the must was settled and racked off its gross lees before being transferred to temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks for fermentation at cool temperatures (around 15°C) to preserve the vibrant aromatics of the Picpoul. Unoaked, the wine was aged in stainless steel on its fine lees for a brief period to add texture to the palate.
Flavour profile
This expressive white wine offers vibrant aromas of citrus fruit, particularly lime and grapefruit, complemented by notes of pure stone fruit. The palate is bright and balanced, delivering a mouthwatering and persistent finish.
Serving recommendation
Serve chilled at 8-10°C to best enjoy its vibrant freshness. No decanting required.
