$49.99
Ploussard with carbonic maceration and zero added sulfur form the harvest to the bottling. The perfect aperitif / snacking wine!
Grape: Ploussard
Vineyard: early Jurassic grey marl clays. 30+ years old vines. Estate-owned, certified organic.
Yields: 35–40 hl/ha
Making of: Grapes are hand harvested in small baskets. Grapes are sorted and destemmed by hand. The berries then undergo carbonic maceration in tanks, for about a month. Once the spontaneous alcoholic and malolactic fermentations are finished, the wine is transferred to big neutral oak barrels (foudres) where it rests for 6-12 months. The wine is bottled without fining, filtration or sulfites, with its natural CO2 to preserve freshness.
