Description
Light lemon color. Aromas of lemon, peach, apricot, melon, honeysuckle as well as sandalwood, crème pâtissière, nutmeg, tobacco and dry nut notes. The similarly sweet mouth aromas are balanced by the wine’s high acidity. Medium volume, medium alcohol with the typical density of a barrel-aged white wine. Flavors of quince, lemon and dried apricots. Persistent and long aftertaste.
Cold soaking of the skins prior to fermentation to transfer aroma components from the grapes to the must. Fermentation starts in stainless steel tanks and on the seventh day the wine with its fine lees is transferred to 225 liter French oak barrels. The fermentation is completed into the barrels while manual bâtonnage (stirring of the fine lees) is applied for about 6 months; a method that gives volume, density and creaminess to the wine.
