Winemaking
80 year-old vines give special character to this wine, made in the same way as those of the more famous French Sparkling Wines. Vouvray is one of France's oldest wine-producing regions with a history dating back to Roman times.
Appearance
Pale straw in colour with youthful green tints and a fine persistent bead.
Nose
Aromas of lemons, green apples, cinnamon spices and a hint of pear combine elegantly on the nose. Subtle yeasty notes round out its appeal and provide a toasty complexity
Palate
The fresh flavours of green apples, lemon curd and cinnamon spices carry over from the nose. It's creamy mouthfeel and zesty acidity a testimony to eighteen months spent on yeast lees. It's fine mousse and persistent bead both hallmarks of a serious sparkling Vouvray.
