ESPRIT - Blanc - 2025

Presentation

Presentation
With this vintage, we put all our know-how from Châteauneuf into the making of a prestigious Côtes du Rhône. A great wine with character, elegant and distinctive, showcasing the historic and king grape variety of the Southern Rhône Valley: Grenache.
In the vineyard
In order for the latter to express itself to its full potential, the work is done in reasoned soil management, with severe pruning in winter, green harvesting, and leaf removal to limit yields. Harvesting is done manually and at optimal ripeness.
Winemaking
The gentle pneumatic pressing is done at low pressure. After settling the must cold overnight at 10°C, alcoholic fermentation takes place in a temperature-controlled stainless steel tank at a low temperature between 16° and 18°.
Ageing
We do not carry out malolactic fermentation to preserve all the freshness and proceed to aging for 6 months on fine lees with regular stirring in stainless steel tanks. The bottling is done in the month of March or April following the harvest.
