VINIFICATION & ÉLEVAGE
Entonnage direct après le débourbage des jus. La vinification se fait en petit contenant (barriques de 225L et de 400L) ce qui nous permet de garder des températures de vinification fraîche (barriques situées dans un chai semi enterrés) et donc d'extraire des composés aromatiques plus complexes. Elevage de 7 à 11 mois en barrique suivant le millésime, avec quelques bâtonnages pendant l'élevage.
Sucre résiduel : moins de 1,4 g/l Soufre : 60 mg/l Acidité totale : 3,70 mg/l
DÉGUSTATION
La robe est or clair, brillante. Le nez, plutôt discret, évoque les fruits jaunes confits, l'ananas frais et la violette. La bouche est élancée, avec une tension qui happe dès l'attaque pour ne plus vous lâcher, tout en offrant ne matière bien mûre, presque confite, réussissant à offrir une fraîcheur croquante / friande, quand bien même ça peut paraître paradoxal. La finale est une explosion de saveurs – et de fraîcheur – avec l'ananas, de la mangue, de la pêche jaune, et une noble amertume évoquant l'écorce d'agrume (orange, pomelo) relevé par un trait de gingembre. Un pur régal !

What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
