Presentation

This rare, limited quantity wine is made from parcels managed by Beaucastel team. It is characterized by its elegance, its freshness, and its immediate accessibility.

Ageing

From the month of August onwards we carry out maturity checks and taste the berries regularly to determine the optimum harvest date. The grapes are immediately pressed on their arrival in the cellar in a pneumatic press. The must is then chilled and cold settled, with no intrants used. Each grape variety is vinified separately. Fermentation begins in the vat, and straight away the must is transferred into demi-muid barrels with regular stirring to add smoothness and structure. This is an essential process to preserve the texture and add richness and complexity to the wine, notably for the Clairette which is a fairly delicate grape. After several months in barrel the wine is lightly fined before being bottled. Our objective in making this wine is to seek out maximum freshness and finesse.
