Le Fief Noir "La Mignonne" Coteau du Layon 1er Cru Chaume blanc moelleux 2018 (50 cl)

Technical sheet written by the domain:

Grapes : 100% Chenin

Terroir : Sand and gravel on schist

Age of grapevines : 45 years old

Cultivation : Pruning in cordon de Royat, spring disbudding and
summer green harvest. Tillage and cavaillon all rows. This ploughing
favors the deep rooting of the vine, which resists the excesse or
shortage water.

Grape harvest : Manual with a selection. We did a selection a few
days before the harvest leaving only perfect grapes, then 2 selections
10 days apart to harvest only botrytised grapes. We are not in a race
to concentrate the wine but more in a search for balance and
freshness.

Vinification : Direct pressing with pneumatic press. Fermentation in
barrels of 300L with wild yeasts. Maturation in barrels during 12
months.

Tasting : Golden color with amber tints. Strengh nose and passing
from exotic fruit to dried fruit, then to plum with brandy. Powerfull
mouth and infinite. well-structured and balanced, this is an elegant
and fresh wine that will truly tempt your taste buds.

Accompaniment : Blue-veined cheese, profiterole with prawns,
Slices of duck foie gras pan, apple and prune charlotte…
