Menetou-Salon

Classic

Tasting notes

A remarkable Sauvignon character, citrus and passion fruit, allying freshness and an exceptional length in the mouth.

Serve chilled, it will be marvellous with fish and sea food. Drink young.

Vinification

The grapes are received via gravity, sorted, then the whole-berries are pneumatically pressed. Cold stabilisation, indigenous yeasts to ensure a spontaneous fermentation in thermo-regulated inox tanks, maturation on the fine lees, then bottled from spring onwards.

Loads of finesses, full of weight in the mouth, but without excess, the harmonious general impression is one of great elegance.

Vinification

Selected from grapes with a high level of maturity, harvested and then sorted, whole berry pneumatic pressing, cold stabilisation, spontaneous fermentation with indigeneous yeasts in thermo-regulated inox tanks, matured on full lees, with a regular stirring over 10 months, then bottled in the Autumn.

Pierre Alexandre

Tasting notes

The cuvée “Pierre Alexandre” allows us to express another idea of what Sauvignon can be like. Its aromas of candied fruits, of over-ripeness and vanilla place it in another category. Drink between 5° and 8° with white meats, calves sweetbreads, fish in sauce, foie gras. It can be kept for 5 to 10 years.

Vinification

This is a specially selected and prepared parcel, the grapes are sorted and havested when over ripe, pressed pneumatically as whole berries, fermented and matured one year in new barrels, bottled in winter.
