aWinemaking
We proceed to a low pressure pressing with whole grapes and a temperature controlled vinification... The maturing lasts about 4 months on fine lees followed by a filtration. The wine is then stored in stainless steel vats for a few months before bottling.
Tasting Notes
Color : Brillant and luminous, deep golden robe.
Aromas : Prunes, stewed Mirabelle plums, bergamot, mild spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg, pepper, tropical wood (camphor and sandalwood).

Food pairing
When served chilled, its citrus fruit notes go perfectly well with an appetizer such as fish terrine or with shellfish and seafood dishes. It goes equally well with dessert, especially mirabelle plum tarts or yellow fruit crumbles.
