LE GRAND CROS

Nectar White

22,00 

Clear golden yellow. Notes of ripe fruit and nuts, grapefruit peel and ocean air. Vanilla on the nose. The mouth is balanced, full and velvety, with round fruit character and softened minerality which lingers through the finish. A light woody touch in finish adds to the general elegance of the rose.

2011 is an unusual vintage. With a relatively cold and rainy summer followed by a hot and dry autumn, the maturation process was delayed, but for those that did not pick too early, the vintage is expressive, characterized by mature, round, warm and fine wines.

Hand harvesting at 40hl per ha.

Each parcel is vinified separately. Grapes were quickly pressed with early separation of pressed must. Tight cold static must settling, temperature control of fermentation at 16-18°C with continuous oxygen. Racking and blockage of malolactic fermentation.

4-5 racking, early fining with bentonite, filtration, time in French oak, stabilization and non-sterile filtration, bottles in the spring.
