Cellar

Elementary method Traditional bottle fermentation

Gentle pressing. The base wine is stopped during the first fermentation (temperature-controlled in steel tanks) and fermented a second time in the bottle unfiltered with yeast specially selected at the winery. The sugar comes exclusively from the grapes. After storage on the lees, the sparkling wine is riddled. No dosage is used at all during the disgorgement process. Only the natural carbon dioxide provides protection against oxidation.

Wine Description

The sparkling wine has a rich golden yellow colour and a different, exciting, "elemental" taste. Here, too, the philosophy of single-varietal sparkling wine remains true. Although the primary fruit is not as pronounced, the varietal character is clearly recognisable.

Tasting Notes

Bright golden yellow, silver reflections, lively mousseux. Ripe apple, a hint of tropical fruit, toasted white bread, floral touch. Juicy, elegant, fruity sweetness of ripe mango, integrated acidity structure, lingers well.

Food Pairing

Braised pumpkin with cream cheese, lentil stew
