The Grapes for this cuvée are selected from the most beautiful terroir of Pécharmant. With this wine, Vincent Alexis waits for the perfect ripeness before harvesting and carefully handpicking the fruit. Then, the berries are put in open barrels (2-3 year old) for 50 days. The idea behind this is to have a very gentle extraction. Next he separates the free-run juice from the pressed juice and returns it to the barrels (closed this time), and ages the wine for 15 months. The only addition to this wine is one gram of SO2 before bottling it.
Faithful to the one who gave her name to this cuvée, this wine shows imposing and delicate aspects. The mouthfeel presents at first a fleshy and dense texture, to finish with delicacy giving a complex wine with silky tannins. Its spiced aromas are enhanced by sweet notes, with a length that caress your palate over and over again.
Grapes from organic farming and natural yeast and low added sulfites. Unfined and unfiltered wine.
