Vinification
After crushing the must is then immediately transferred to stainless steel vats and fermented at low temperatures (4° to 6° C) in order to preserve the extraction of aromas. The fermentation process usually lasts two to four weeks. When the time is right, fermentation is stopped by the addition of alcohol to the residue (must) so as to obtain a wine with an alcoholic content of about 15% in volume and around 110 grams per litre of residual sugar.
Flavour profile
This 'vin doux naturel' offers an enticing bouquet of flowers, peaches, and apricots, which gracefully mingle with honey and ripe melon flavours on the palate. It is a seductively luscious sweet wine, beautifully balanced by bright, sinuous acidity that carries through to a refreshing finish.
